Nutrition

If you’ve done one of my Challenges before, you’ve heard me say this already. But I say it every Challenge, because that’s how important it is.

Following the meal plan is single the most important part of this program.
Now, I know this is a very unique time across the world. Which means some foods might not be available in our grocery stores like they usually are.

If that’s the case – if you can’t find something, and have questions about replacements – I will be on the forums every day during this Challenge, from the COVID-19 MOCO FITNESS 30 DAY CHALLENGE Facebook group.

We are there to answer any questions you have regarding these meal plans and anything else we can help with.

MEAL PLANNING

This program is designed to help you lose body fat while maintaining muscle

Gaining muscle while in a caloric deficit is hard – but we are going to do it by incorporating a form of carb cycling.

 

About The Meal Plans

After 15 years of living a healthy lifestyle, I know – eating the same foods day after day gets boring.

A lack of variety in your meals means you’ll stop enjoying what you’re eating – fast. And that’s one of the main reasons most diets fail.

So here’s the great part about the way these meal plans are designed – you have a lot of options! Which means a lot of variety.

If you don’t like something on the plan, or if you’re tired of it and want to make a substitution, all you have to do is refer to the food exchange list and substitute something from that same category in its place.

That way if you want to exchange a protein for another protein, all you need to do is check out the food exchange list and pick another option from that category.

Prepare To Succeed

If you haven’t prepared your meals in advance, you are going to be much more likely to eat something that isn’t on your plan … otherwise known as cheating. When hunger kicks in, you are more likely to reach for whatever is quickest and easiest – and those usually aren’t the most healthy foods.

If you follow the grocery list for this program, you will be preparing your food 3-4 days in advance.

Weigh Your Food

Another extremely important part of getting in shape and transforming your body is weighing your food

Every little thing adds up, and if you are not weighing each meal, you could be eating a few hundred extra calories per day without even knowing it.

As a general rule, measure all meat, potatoes, rice and pasta (whole wheat, of course) cooked. Measure oatmeal dry.

Dos & Don’ts

• DO Buy a digital food scale. Do not eyeball your portions!
• DO Be prepared! Cook your meals in advance for at least 3-4 days worth of meals at a time
• DON’T Overdo it with condiments. Calories add up!
