WHAT do I eat??

I get this alot when I am telling folks about this meal plan.  The Game On Diet website has the list of foods you can eat
http://www.thegameondiet.com/templates/tgod/images/food_chart-5-1.pdf.  Sorry, I don't know how to embed yet, but by clicking on this, you should be able to see what you can eat...but, if you are at all like me and like your food in slightly more inventive forms, I thought I would give you a sampling of my Week 1 plan starting January 5th...when our next game begins...When you read the book, you will be told that everyone's measurements of food are different, but you need a HAND to begin :)  Carbs: fist size, Protein: palm size and Fat: Thumb size...Yes, my husband gets to eat more food than me because his hand is bigger than mine...and my hand is freakishly small because I have a small person inside this body...just gotta shrink the body to equal the hand :)

Day 1:
Meal 1: Egg on whole wheat english muffin with avacado slices.  Meal 2: Lauging Cow wedge with Triscuits and Nuts. Meal 3: Grilled Chicken (leftover from night before) on half whole wheat tortilla with lettuce, tomatoes and avacado. Meal 4: Protein Bar (experiment and find one you like); Meal 5: Crockpot Lean Italian Beef on a Whole Wheat Roll with Roasted Asparagus and olive oil.
(Simple, right :)?
Day 2:
Meal 1: Plain Greek Yogurt in blender with Frozen Strawberries, 1 TBS ground flax seed and water.  Meal 2: Mozz. Cheese Stick with Wheat Thins and Peanuts. Meal 3: Same lunch as Day 1; Meal 4: Protein Bar; Meal 5: Whole Grain Pizza Crust topped with Sliced zucchini, tomotoes, shrimp, lo fat mozzarella and lots of spices (i.e.: crushed red pepper, garlic, oregano, basil, rosemary and whatever else tickles your fancy)...and a spritz or drizzle of olive oil.
Day 3:
Meal 1: Hard boiled Egg on Whole Wheat Bagel Thin. Meal 2: Plain greek yogurt with pure maple syrup, pear and walnuts. Meal 3: Whole wheat wrap with leftover shrimp from night before (see the pattern...always make enough at dinner for next day leftovers reconstructed). Meal 4: Laughing Cow Wedge with Wheat Thins and Nuts. Meal 5: Lean Pork Chops with Sugar Free Apricot All Fruit, Sauteed green beans in olive oil and garlic and 1/2 baked sweet potato (plain).
Day 4:
Meal 1: Nutrigrain Whole Wheat Waffle with Turkey Bacon, Strawberries, Syrup (only a little) and walnuts. Meal 2: Mozz Stick with apple and sliced almonds. Meal 3: Leftover pork stirfried with egg, snap peas, carrots and scallions. Meal 4: Greek yogurt, banana and peanuts. Meal 5: Grilled Chicken, Brown Rice and Sauteed Spinach.
Day 5:
Meal 1: Canned pumpkin mixed with egg whites, stevia, and cinnamon, baked and topped with walnuts.  Meal 2: L.Cow wedges with grapes and sliced almonds. Meal 3: Leftover grilled chicken on bed of fresh spinach and red onions. Meal 4: Protein Bar. Meal 5: Whole grain tortilla with red fat shredded cheddar or jack cheese topped with corn, salsa, spinach, mushrooms and avacado.

And this is my week one plan, so far...obviously, any of these meals can be changed to fit your likings...according to the plan...and watch your portions...remember, fist, palm and thumb.
