Today we are taking the complicated out of eating
mostly whole foods and high protein at home in a way that makes you
feel full and energized. It’s taken me so many years of learning
and spending money on experts to help me figure it all out.
Now every persons body is different of course but I’m
sharing lots of ideas of you to chose from to eat in a way that
reduces inflammation in your body and helps you be your healthiest
and can help you lose weight, all while feeling
satisfied.
I’m giving you a grocery list to follow to make it
all simple and not so complicated.
Because this is what I know… most people aren’t
eating enough protein and are eating too much processed foods. Most
people say they are tired and often times we want to
healthier but it’s hard to know where to start. I also know
that we must have a strong plan in order to stick to our
goals.
So this is our plan for eating to feel our best in
the short term and long term. Eating for energy and longevity and
the part I think that most people miss with this - buying organic
and grass fed items are always more expensive than the regular but
if you prep it the right way, it is absolutely less expensive than
ordering in.
And if you know me you know there are some awesome
healthy treats in the plan too, because that’s what makes it
sustainable in the long term. We are full and satisfied and know
it’s not at all a diet, but rather a lifestyle to feel our
best.
Let’s go!
Here is your grocery list
*Grassfed ground beef or steaks
*Organic ground chicken or turkey
*Organic pasture raised eggs
*1 organic butter lettuce
*1 organic head of iceberg lettuce
*1 organic rotisserie chicken
*Veggies like zucchini, onions, peppers
*Avocados (1 per day)
*Berries

Then some throw ins to make all of this
sustainable

possible

How to make the money go the furthest!
Protein amounts...
An egg has 6g of protein
A chicken breast as about 40g of protein
One pound of ground beef has 65g of
protein
Some seeds can be great too like hemp seeds and
pumpkin seeds
So if your goal is 1g of protein per pound of body
weight- you can divide out how much protein you need per
meal.
My goal is 120g per day so I plan for about 40-50g
per meal and I have 3 meals.
I think the KEY to all of this is to base your meals
around protein and mostly whole foods. Get some veggies and some
carbs and you’re nice and full and happy!
Other options based on preferences!
*Halibut or salmon -always wild caught
*Canned tuna or chicken
*Flax seeds and chia seeds
*Protein powders!
Take this list with you to the grocery store!
