Start with an eight or 10-inch plate. Mentally divide your plate. One half is going to be all vegetables, preferably fresh or frozen ...no canned veggies. Remember to include lots of your favorites.
Fill one quarter of your plate with nutrient-rich, fiber-filled whole grains such as brown rice, quinoa, or farro. These are all delicious and much better choices than white rice or pasta. Note: try to limit or avoid white bread.
Pick a protein. Complete the last quarter of your plate with the highest quality protein you can afford. If it’s animal based, get organic, grass-fed, or hormone free. If it’s Vegetarian... consider organic tempeh, tofu, beans or lentils.
AND THAT’S IT! Remember variety is the spice of life. The color of every vegetable signifies a different nutrient, and they all have their own health advantages.
“Eat to Lose”, is a plant-based, non-boring recipe book! It’s heavy on veggies but remember this is not about becoming a Vegetarian or Vegan. It’s about getting you a slimmer waistline and a healthier life!
Oops, there’s actually one more, and this may, in fact, be the most important, Water. Your goal here is to drink 8 to 12 ounces of water every four hours between 6 AM and 6 PM. I guarantee, your skin will absolutely GLOW!
70 percent of what you are looking at in the mirror is your food and “Eat to Lose!” will undoubtedly give you a different view! i
