14 Day Meal Guide
14 Day Meal Guide
11 Days into the New Year and one of the hardest routines to get back into/begin is eating clean and timely. We love a good reset to do this. We are using the word reset in a psychological sense here versus resetting your body's chemistry as that happens over time with the consistency of clean, nutritious foods, timing of eating, hydration, detoxification pathways such as sweating, etc. This is a guide to;
1. Get in enough useful food (this is usually the tough part and often more "un-useful foods" are consumed than useful)
2. Eat timely throughout the day to prevent big gaps, and then oversized meals. This is a habit that greatly impacts blood glucose levels.
3. Eat foods that are closer to their original whole form - aka unprocessed. This is a great habit to start to build via reading labels and being conscious of WHAT you are consuming, how it was made, and what it contains!
This meal plan doesn't contain sizes or portions because everyone is different. Our general rule of thumb for this is:
1. Do not eat past full
2. Drink water with you meals to also determine where this feeling is (your body will communicate it)
3. Make sure each meal contains a healthy carb, protein and fat. Veggie carbs can fit in your hand, protein can fit in your palm, and fat can fit in half your palm (ie half an avocado). This is just a very general guide and everything should be tailored to your body - use this as a starting point to learn your body and what it needs!
