Eat Whole Foods

Got a new habit today:

Eat Whole Foods

what does this mean?

Note: Still try to

• Do a 5-minute action where needed
• Eat slowly
• Stop eating when 80% full
• Eat lean protein with each meal
• Eat at least five servings of vegetables
• Make "smart carb" choices
• Plan PN-friendly meals
• Be conscious of what you eat (although you don’t have to keep logging your intake)
• Have a sleep ritual (and shoot for at least 7 hours of sleep per night)
• Drink only non-caloric beverages
• Use a targeted recovery strategy

 Whole foods include:

• vegetables
• fruits
• meats and poultry
• fish and seafood
• nuts and seeds
• beans and lentils
• whole intact grains
• minimally processed dairy (e.g. fresh plain yogurt)

Now, you can make things out of whole foods, and that still counts. For example:

• If you make stew from fresh vegetables and meat — that’s whole food.

• If you make an omelet from fresh eggs and fresh veggies — that’s whole food.

• If you make a quinoa and mushroom pilaf — that’s whole food.
