I like her plan. She's willing to buy you two weeks of food and show you how to prepare it, too! If anything, just humour her for two weeks and try this eating plan - you might actually feel tons better
Your main complaint about this was that it doesn't have variety, there's a ton of variety! It's just all healthy stuff. What else are you eating on a regular basis that you are going to miss by following this plan?
I don't mind that, too much. But I do mind that she said I have to eat ONLY what's on that plan. She said, "yeah, it's boring, but it gets results." While that may be true..I like variety. /: And I have no idea what skim milk tastes like. I don't DRINK milk. It goes in my cereal only, but I dunno if I'll like it. Rah..I want to enjoy everything I eat and change it up..
What do you want to eat that you don't feel c an work in this plan?
well, it says 1/3 carb on a meal plate for 5-6 meals, so you just have to be creative. it's not that carbs are bad, it's that people will eat so many that they neglect protein/fats (erm... protein,most don't neglect fats LOL), so to teach you about balance. Plus, people tend to binge on them. Nobody eats 3,000 calories of broccoli complex carbs but could easily demolish that in a bag of chips.
each sushi roll has about 1 full cup cooked white rice. so, I would consider one basic tuna roll without mayo to be sufficient carbs for one meal. sashimi, miso, sunomono, all great accompanyments
Yep, one roll, brown rice if it's possible, no mayo, tempura or fatty sauces, the ginger dressing is usually not too calorific (100 or so calories, but ask for it on the side anyway), tea, and start with miso soup and edamame.
My nutritionist used to say as a general rule, half of your plate should be non-starchy vegetables.
I'd like to know how many calories per day her plan is - or did I miss that somewhere.
Oh, I control my caloric intake. I eat about 1400 a day, but it's usually under that.
And everyone else, thanks so much. I'll look into the healthy sushi alternatives <3
And I am working out today. My friend is finally back to working out with me again so she's gonna push me to my limit as her way of Saying "I'm backkk.
