Grocery List
As Spring quickly approaches, now is the time to being making strides towards the person you want to be during Spring Break. After doing an hour and a half of research and watching an hours worth of informative videos. Here are some recommended foods to include in your diet and/or grocery list. Enjoy!
This list was personalized for me so do some of your own research as well. But as for me, this will be my new grocery list for the next four months. Join me on the journey!
Portion Size is Critical.. Have some willpower
Limit carbs and maximize protein
1 gram of protein per pound per day
Potato to keep you feeling full
Olive oil
Protien powder
Avocado
Oats for good carbs
LOTS of eggs
LOTS of lean meats like chicken or turkey
Green peas
LOTS of vegetables
Red/Yellow Peppers
Onions
Cherry Tomatos
Broccoli is great
Spinach for cooking of salad
Brown Rice is a good source for carbs
Banana
Cottage Cheese
Tuna
Greek Yogurt
Raisens
STICK WITH GREENS VEGETABLES
Squash
BERRIES for antioxidants.
Nuts but I really need to cut down
Goji Berris
Cut out ALL Bread. Bread is not a clean source of carbs
Cut out gluten
Cut out as much sugar as possible. Limit yourself to 30 grams of sugar a day.
Don’t eat red meat more than 2 or 3 times a week.
Stay away from cheese!
Eat granola or oatmeal instead of cereal
Cut out sugar and replace with ketchup
Go for anything and everything natural
Buy spices to give your bland tasting food a better taste. Replace sugar with spices.
CUT OUT PASTA
Eat dark chocolate over any other kind of chocolate
Get almond ice cream over any other kind of ice cream. It just has way too much sugar
Go with veggie chips or sweet potato chips over any other kind of chip snack
