So...do you just eat salads, or what???

I had a client ask me yesterday, "So...do you just eat salads, or what???"

Of course, this is strictly a training client - if she was a food client she would already know the answer to that question...of course not! Don't think for one second that in order to slim your waistline you have to eat like a rabbit. In fact, the opposite is true! While it is incredibly important to eat plenty of raw fruits and veggies, it is also equally important to consume lean protein, healthy fats and fiber filled beans and legumes. If I do eat a salad it is filled with avocado, grilled chicken, chopped veggies, hard boiled eggs and olives. I use spinach or mixed baby greens...avoid iceburg lettuce at all costs! It is simply a filler with no nutritional value!

So...who's hungry now? fft
