Eating Ideas

Nutrition is a very personal matter, and advice should be taken from a Registered Dietician if you are serious about finding a healthy way to loose weight! Some of you have been asking me about the diabetic sugar free diet a use for a few weeks when I need to kick start my metabolism, I then follow a similar eating style but add back in more variety of foods including fruits. What I do is shared below, and was given to me by a close freind.

Diabetic Sugar Free Diet

Breakfast:
Bran Buds (No Milk – use water and splenda it tastes like milk) or
Protein Shake (you can add some instant coffee for flavour for all you coffee people)
OR pick one carb and one protein

Then eat 5 more meals in the day that consist on one carb; one veggie; and one protein

CARBS
• ½ cup brown rice
• ½ cup oats
• ½ cup bran buds
• ½ cup sweet potato
• ½ cup Quinoa
• 1 serving of sugar free rice cakes


Protein
• 4 oz chicken
• 4 oz lean ground beef
• 4 oz salmon
• 1 can tuna
• ½ cup cottage cheese
• 6 egg white
• Low carb protein shake

Veggies 100-200 grams
• Salad
• Cucumber
• Celery
• Spinach
• Peppers
• Mushrooms
• Squash
• Broccoli
• Asparagus
• Occasionally tomato

No Veggies that have sugar like corn or carrots, no fruits, no dressings, marinade or butter.
Use dry spices and salsa for sauces
No Juice, sugar, cream in your coffee

Completely stick to the plan for 2 weeks…then tell me where your at and we will talk about the next step

Cabbage Soup Recipe:
