PORTIONING YOUR PLATE


Ok so it helps me to divide our plates up in 3 sections


1. Vegetables- These should be non-starchy vegetables that are multicolored!! The more color on your plate, the better!! This should take up half of your plate.

2. Protein is your next section. Chicken, beef, pork, lamb, ham, turkey, any lean meat and egg. This should be a little over 1/4 of your meal.

3. Carbs-brown rice, cous cous, quinoa, (steer clear of bread, white rice and pasta with weight loss) try to avoid any Carbs at night time.

A few notes-
 Try and limit Carbs to morning and lunch stay clear at night time.
Potato is a starchy carb cut them out if you can all together
Eat the whole egg- the best part for you is the yolk
