Sample Diet Plan

Hello friends and hello to some of my new followers!  We're so happy to have you!  
I like to think that I am pretty fitness/diet saavy.  I spend...I dunno..at least 4 hours a day thinking or talking about one of those topics.  


That being said I still find times where I don't make the right food choice or I blank on what healthy snack to have.  That's why I surround myself with fitness magazines, health journals, and other awesome bloggers to remind me of things that I might have "forgotten".  


For all of us who might need a little diet-brain re-start here is another sample diet for ya!  Remember I am not a registered dietitian (yet) and every person's body and metabolism is different.
This diet is a little less strict than our Clean Eating diet. I'd give it a 4 out of 10 for difficulty.  As always:

  • Try to keep your food as clean and unproceesed as possible
  • Eat 5-6 times a day
  • Include protein at every meal
  • Fill up on veggies especially in the evening
  • Drink tons of water
  • Don't forget the fiber :)
Fit2Flex Sample Diet:
  • Breakfast-  Smoothie on-the-go- 
    • Mix one scoop protein powder, 1/4c oatmeal, fruit, ice, and any liquid.  Optional- flax seed, chia seeds, spinach. You can also sub Greek yogurt for protein powder
  • Snack 1- 
    • 1 apple with peanut butter or Luna/LaraBar and apple
  • Lunch- 
    • Power wrap- Whole wheat tortilla with chicken, spinach, tomato, hummus, and feta (or any combo of healthy ingredients)
  • Snack 2- 
    • Mix1 protein shake or Greek Yogurt or cottage cheese
  • Dinner- 
    • 4oz lean chicken, shrimp, or lean beef with 1 cup steamed veggies, 1/2 sweet potato, and a spinach salad with a vinegar based dressing
  • Dessert- 
    • Sugar Free Jell-o or 1/2 cup of pineapple
Keep focused and keep healthy!  If you have a weight loss goal- tell us.  The support will only help you achieve your goal!
