I had a great food session with Team 5 who is calling themselves FIT over Five or FIT / FIVE. Out of the discussion I realized that many of you are not eating frequently enough and are very tired by the time you stop to make dinner and then binge on crackers and cheese.
Some of the most difficult times are
- Mid-Afternoon - low blood sugar
- Preparing Dinner - Low blood sugar
- The Day- After- the- Workout- muscle repair, stiffness, fatigue & self-medicating with Carbs
Having a lunch with protein and fiber should last longer. EX chili or a salmon lentil salad
Those of you learning to cook more or just really busy consider a protein shake for a snack mid-afternoon or following your workout.. It can be a meal replacement but not a crutch.
Remember: with protein shakes and bars you must drink a lot of water or you could become constipated.
Overall as a mid-afternoon snack this will make fixing a dinner that is healthy easier to do because you will not be dying of hunger.
Imagine a diet where you have to eat!
As far as which protein shake to get...
Cinda swears by one that helped her lose 150 pounds.
I have used one that is available at Whole Foods that tastes pretty good. Of course is individual..Check in with her or me for more information.
FIT /FIVE is leading the pack in food training. They are meeting with me next week at a home and we are all bringing dishes to pass to try different foods and recipes...! Any other teams want to try this?
Tonight I will be with the Gut Busters at Marie's house to talk food. More later...Bonnie
Yeah "Team Fit/Fat" and today part of the Fab Fit Five team met to discuss food - we should finish up with the other team members tomorrow. Great start to the week - and let's build the momentum and muscle while we discard those unwanted fat pounds.
ReplyDeleteWe had a food training at one of the Gut Buster's home (the home of a beautiful creature..named Lily :-) )
ReplyDeleteThey are working to find the traps in their food habits and are diligently going to the club to work out, The Gut Busters are on their way toward taking care of themselves!
