Our Excellent Nutrition
- I love food!! I truly enjoy tasting different recipes and sharing with family and friends. I will include new recipes as I try them here. I feel it is vital to work toward a BETTER diet so here is what I do and what has helped me.
- eat 3 meals with lunch being your main meal and dinner your small one
- Each meal has about 1 palm size of protein (2 for men) and 2 cups or 2 hand sizes of veggies (3 for men)
- I eat only 1 serving of grains per day (whole grain)
- I try to cut dairy
- I have no more than 2 fruits per day
- I eat minimally processed foods moving toward a FRESH diet
- I have 1 cheat meal per week something I do not have all week long.
