Best Food Sources and Portions
Good Foods Are Your Friend This is the ‘2007 Repeatable Mantra and it must be repeated until you really mean it
Cutting out foods containing sugar, alcohol and grease and replacing them with clean foods like brown rice, lean chicken and salmon will speed you on your way toward your physical goals
To eat cleanly you need to choose from the following choices and make sure to eat the correct portion sizes. Most important is to make sure that you eat about five to six small meals every day.
Use your palm or a deck of cards to determine the serving size of lean protein.
Examples include:
· Soy products · Legumes · Egg whites only · Salmon · Lean chicken or turkey breast · White fish no butter · Pork tenderloin · Beef tenderloin
Add two cups or two handfuls of steamed or fresh veggies.
Whole-grain sources should be about the size of a tennis ball. Select things like brown rice, whole-wheat toast or whole grain cereal.
Things to avoid include:
· Regular Soda. Drink water, clear green tea or black coffee instead.
· Fruit juices. They contain too much sugar.
· Too many sugary fruits.
· Becoming Proud about not eating.
· Forgetting to drink water.

Fat loss Reminder
In order to lose fat, you’re going to have to learn to eat more, you have to eat better food and you have to make better food choices.
Approximately 75 - 80% of your weight loss/gain is directly proportionate to the amount of calories that you put into your body.
20 - 25% of your weight loss/gain is directly related to the amount and type of exercise that you choose to do.
Your actual total weight is a combination of fat, muscle, organ tissue, bone and water. The only item on this list that is an acceptable loss is FAT !
Skinny looking people can be fat!!!!
Change is never easy but it does make the victory that much sweeter!
Put your heart into it. Stay Strong and have the most successful year ever.
