The Five P's

Good morning Boca the sun is up so get your gloves up. Today is the first day of school in Palm Beach county but it still feels like late this summer not an early fall. We all know that preparation is the key to any regiment. You must have a set schedule, pattern or routine to be consistent. The five P's Proper Planning Promotes Peak Performance it's a little lame but it is true.

Don't spend all of your time in the kitchen! Eating is pass/fail and just because you're good for part of the day doesn't mean you passed. All it takes is one bad, disgustingly fattening, wonderfully tasting piece of food. The high fat content and calories in that one item ruins your clean eating day. As your children go back to school I sincerely doubt you will tell them it's ok to cheat just a little lol.

Make enough servings of dinner to give yourself a complete lunch for the next day. Do you see where I'm heading? Use the breakfast example from "Get the Skinny on Fat" and snack examples from "Kick-Start Your Metabolism". Now you have 3 of 5 feedings for the day.

Happy Shredding!
