My Weight Loss Diet Plan

Outlined below is an example of my most recent day to day weight loss diet plan (Sunday through Friday - Saturday is a cheat day).  Now the key to remember is that this diet is tailored to my body and is not a one size fits all for everyone.  However, this will give you a good example of what types of foods are good to eat.

The protein, carbohydrate and fat percentages are specifically tailored to help me lose 1 to 2 pounds a week.  Yes you read that right, only 1 to 2 pounds a week.  Any more than that and you will start to burn up muscle (which is what you do not want to do).  Less is really more when  it comes to dieting.

The diet below is also good example of a well balanced diet that incorporates fruits, grains, quality proteins, quality fats and a good source of complex carbohydrates.  Sometimes I will switch out different food items to give variety to the diet but for the most part I do stick with eating what you see below.  The key is that I stay within my daily caloric levels when switching foods around.

Now the diet below was customized to my body using the information I learned from reading Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle. The diet that I was using prior to this one was a great diet and helped me lose most my weight but it mainly focused on my caloric and protein intake.  The diet below allows me to eat a little more carbohydrates while still losing weight.  If you are interested in learning how you too can customize a diet to your body then click here for additional details .  I highly recommend Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle to anyone that has an interest in losing weight.
