Food List and Sample Day of Eating: Lean Proteins
Here are the essentials for you to thrive on this plan. Do these, and you can’t go wrong.
• Eat at least three protein-rich meals per day, plus 1-2 protein-rich snacks. Also eat
vegetables. Lots of them.
• Eat fast-digesting carbs before and after your workout, but limit them elsewhere
in the day.
• Snacks are the perfect time for things like progurt (protein plus yogurt), protein ice
cream, and other protein-rich treats.
• Don’t eat garbage over the course of the nine weeks. Come on, deep down you
know what garbage is. Eat quality food, and lots of it.
