I am asked all the time - "what should I eat throughout the day?".

That's a little tough, depending on what your goals are - but let's say for the sake of this conversation, you are trying to get fit, strong and lean. Sound good?

OK, here is a quick "blueprint" of what a well-balanced day might look like:

Breakfast - 1-2 whole eggs, 1 slice Ezekiel toast, 1 apple,
Green Tea, fish oil or krill oil supplement.

Snack - 1oz raw almonds, 1 pear, Green Tea

Lunch - Grilled chicken/salmon or black bean salad with spinach,
onion, peppers, mushrooms, etc., 1 banana or bowl of cherries,
2 cups unsweetened iced tea with lime or lemon (and be sure to
keep drinking good ol' fashioned ice water for proper hydration)

Snack - Unlimited raw vegetables (you chose) and hummus

Dinner - Protein and vegetables and fruit...so this could be a small
piece of steak, chicken, or fish, along with your favorite
vegetables, and a bowl of your favorite fruit. Throw a little
avocado/salsa in every now and then to mix it up.

Now, listen - this blueprint won't change too much, with the exception of a slight
variation in your main course at dinner, right? And then once per
week schedule a meal of your favorite food. But can you see the outline?

You are pairing up lots of veggies, fruits with protein and fats...no processed
junk....just real food, well balanced.

Everyone can stick to this plan - it's not a "diet", it's a lifestyle.
You'll essentially approach food with this mentality from here on out.
This nutrition approach will start ripping off the blubber sooner rather
than later - guaranteed - without STUPID and RIDICULOUS diets.
This is also how you'll need to eat for the rest of your life.
It's not hard, it just requires a little practice.

Keep at it and NEVER give up.
