Prepare ahead of time what you will eat for the day. In this day and age of ‘quickie’ everything, it’s just too easy to make fast, haphazard and in this case, non-nutritional choices. Look in your frig, and plan ahead what you will eat today. Be sure to include lots of fruits and vegetables (they are your nutrition powerhouses), and get adequate protein from lean sources, like low fat dairy, chicken, turkey and lean cuts of beef. LImit consumption of fats and concentrate on the omega 3s in avocados, nuts and olive oil. These fats clean your arteries, not clog them! Avoid refined white sugar; I personally believe it is ‘devil’ food! It kills, steals and destroys!!! Also avoid packaged products with all the added chemical words no one can pronounce and added sodium. Satisfy your hunger today with food that builds your body up. Do not starve or stuff!

Great post!
In addition to avoiding refined white sugar, don’t forget about the other “white death” refined white flour. The effects it has on the body are almost identical to that of sugar.
So far today I’ve had just about all the good stuff you mentioned except for the veggies, and I’ll be having a huge mixing bowl sized salad soon.

Hi Topfit!
Yes, yuu are soooo right! No refined flour either! Nice, I have had a slice of 100% whole wheat toast with natural peanut butter to start off the day. Then after my chest workout, I had eggs and lots of spinach. Yummy!!
