This drink is cleansing and a great way to flush the system to start the day. |
Grapefruit is light and full of vitamins and minerals. It also contains the antioxidant lycopene. And under the rind is the compound, naringin -- which helps regulate insulin. |
Whole wheat pasta doesn't spike blood glucose levels like white pasta. No meat here. I avoid pairing meats with starchy carbs to allow for better digestion. |
If you're focusing on losing bodyfat, protein smoothies are a good supplement to ensure you're getting adequate protein in your diet. |
My meals change depending on what I'm focusing on. Whether it be adding muscle, leaning out or maintenance -- all goals require a different approach to diet. Right now I'm working toward leaning out a tad. Every so often, I slack off a little (yes, I do too) and need to refocus my efforts. I never let things get too far off track -- I check my bodyfat percentage often to keep an eye on things. The meals reflected here are what I consider to be a pretty good day -- eating every few hours, food pairings were good and I avoided starchy carbs at night. And at the end of the night when I was dog tired from chasing my twins around all day, I went to the gym at 10 p.m. to get in some cardio. Not to toot my own horn ... but, toot toot!

My family has revolted against turkey burgers, but I absolutely love them. At this point, packing it up for lunch (instead of dinner) is the only way I could eat it in peace without getting eyes rolled at me. Thanks for sharing your meals!
I like a burger every now and again, but I just can't do ground beef anymore. Turkey burgers are a great alternative for me. Glad you like them too!
