I thought with the holidays right around the corner it may be a good time to review some of the esesntials:
1. 2 oz. of protein for breakfast, serving size of a starch, fruit, cup of fat-free milk
2. 2 oz. of protein for lunch, serving size of a starch, veggie, yogurt or cup of fat-free milk
3. Fruit
4. 4 oz. of protein for dinner, serving size of a starch, veggie, PLUS an added fat (ie. light dressing, margarine, low-fat natural peanut butter, handful of nuts)
5. 100 - 130 calorie snack
Other key components:
1. Try to stay under 700mg of sodium per meal
2. Try not to go over 9g fat for dinner and 3g - 8g for lunch as well as breakfast
3. When looking at sugar avoid anything over approximately 12g
4. Cardio, cardio, cardio (3-4 times a week)
5. Drink lots of water
6. Avoid eating out and drinking alcohol
Hope these little reminders helped!
