New Diet: The Game On diet

Ok another year another diet. For 6 weeks two teams will compete for points and the team with the most points will win the $$$ pot.

Team P.E.N. 

• Pat 
• Emilie 
• Nancy 

Team M.A.C. 

• Matt 
• Amy 
• Carie 

I'm resurrecting the my food blog to help me track my food.

The diet requires: 
5 meals a day (or you can think of it as 3 meals and 2 snacks, but the rules are the same for all meals)

EACH MEAL must include:

• 1 palm sized portion of a lean protein 
• 1 fist sized portion of carbs OR a fruit 
• 1 thumb sized portion of something from the fats list (note butter and margarine are not on the list
• 2 of your meals a day must include a serving equal to the size of two fists of vegetables - you may also eat unlimited green vegetables with any meals 
• you also get 100 free calories that you can use for whatever you want (condiments, butter, a piece of chocolate) OR one glass of wine OR one cocktail 
• the guideline, if you are using your 100 calories to have a treat (such as a bite of cake), in situations where you cannot find out the actual calories, is to assume that a portion the size of -your thumb is the equivalent to 100 calories (this is the strategy identified in the book for this diet/game) 
• the only snack you can have outside of this meal structure is cucumbers and celery\
•

The Cleanse: Week 2

So apparently I made a big booboo, in that this cleanse is 15 days: 5 days of week 1, 5 days of week 2, 5 days of week three. Instead, I had week one as a week, 7 days. Oh well! I will be on week two at least 5 days if not a bit longer.

We are traveling starting starting Thurs of this week, an unexpected trip. Since most of our meal is the protein drink we will be packing the protein, the greens, and the detox pills to take with us.

This week will be filled with yummy salads, soups, rice pilaf that Nancy made, and because we found the Taro Chips last week, we'll have some crunch as well. I think the challenge this week will be getting in all three protein drinks. They are very filling, and gritty.

Monday:
Breakfast: smoothie: 4 carrots(juiced), 1/4 lime (juiced), a chunk of ginger (juiced), 1 orange (juiced), then transfer to blender add banana, 1 c rice milk (120), and protein and greens mix.

The Cleanse: Week 1

The Mediclear cleanse starts today! Friends and I pre-made some veggie purees, soup, bean dip, and beans so that we had some things ready for us to simply pull out of the fridge.

After attempting calorie counting, which I deplore by the way, I see that my smoothies are crazy high in calories, and my portions of rice, beans, etc can be lower. I am going to switch to juicing veggies and use unsweetened almond milk rather than rice milk...120 per cup vs. 40 per cup, how could i not! If i must sweeten something I will use organic maple syrup or agave nectar and it will be noted and accounted for.
