What eating plan does this resemble?
I want to discuss my eating choices on 3 Fat Chicks to get advice and encouragement. Could you look at my eating plan and see where I best fit- whole foods, low carb, phase one South Beach, or something else?
Eat/drink daily: fish and/or eggs skim milk fresh vegetables fruit fat (mayo or oil) herbs & spices Diet soda (I need it's bad for me, but I love it) Eat sometimes, but not daily (usually when eating out, not at home) soy cheese nuts beans bacon olives Eat/drink rarely, in moderation alcohol rice Foods I avoid (but I might have a serving, now and again) Sugar Flour Potatoes Starchy vegetables Processed foods, including lean cuisine type dinners Chick peas (I love them too much, so I had to ban these babies :() There are probably foods I'm forgetting. I mostly eat vegetables, lean protein, milk and fruit. What plan do I most resemble or am a strange bird? Thanks. |
Well, fruit is banned in SB phase 1 (although you do add it in later - and honestly, it doesn't look like you have tons to lose. So if you're not craving sugar, you might be able to just start in phase 2 with a serving of fruit daily).
Why do you feel like you need a specific "plan"? Have you found your weight loss has stalled or some other reason? |
You are almost totally what I would call Primal (very healthy - I feel great and am losing like I want).
Check out Mark Sisson's book Primal Blueprint (a cookbook is also out now). His blog is also very helpful - make sure you read around on the forum - lots of information, recipes, etc. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/ I have always tried to eat low fat, high carb (healthy complex grains, etc.), but I am now a true convert. I urge you to do some reading and see what you think. I haven't been active on it, but I know there's a thread on primal on the low carb section of 3FC. Good luck! |
Thanks. I knew my eating had to resemble something on the 3FC board. I will check out the Primal diet for tips and the primal threads on 3FC.
