“Pick Three” Nutrition Principle

With nutrition (90% of your results) preparation is key, but it doesn’t have to be complicated.

Your nutrition tip for the day: Practice “Pick Three”

For the following 4 groups, pick three whole food sources that will get you closer to your goal.

  • Lean Protein
    • Examples: Tilapia, Ground Turkey, Egg Whites
  • Fats
    • Examples: Olive Oil, Avocado, Almonds
  • Veggie Carbs
    • Examples: Steamer veggie bags, bell peppers, spinach
  • Starchy Carbs
    • Examples: Sweet Potatoes, Brown Rice, Black beans

1 meal is usually made up of the following:

  • 1 fist-sized serving lean protein and starchy carbs
  • 2 fist-sized servings of veggie carbs
  • 1 thumbs-sized serving of fat.

Congrats! You now have:

  • 24 possible meal combinations *if we are only going off of the 4 factorial
  • A grocery list.
  • Template for crafting those meals.

Build some meals using your three and enjoy!
