Eat Less C.R.A.P. and Eat More F.O.O.D.

Eat LESS of these things:
C - Carbonated Drinks
R - Refined Sugars
A - Artificial Sweeteners / Colors
P - Processed Foods
Eat MORE of these things:
F - Fruits & Vegetables
O - Organic, or Lean Protein
O - Omega 3 Fatty Acids
D - Drink Water

How Much to Eat Each Day
​Body Wt x 11 - 1,000 = Daily Calories      (min 1,200 cals)

Healthy calories go farther than unhealthy calories.  It's harder to eat 1,500 calories of clean, healthy food, than 1,500 calories of junk.
​According to the formula above, a 200 lb person needs  at least 1,200 calories of good, clean food.
​DO NOT GO BELOW 1,200 calories per day.

Fruits & Vegetables

Eat 1 serving of Fruit and 5 - 6 servings of Vegetables each day - roughly 400 calories.
Each your 1 serving of fruit by 3 pm each day.  Eating it for breakfast or mid-morning is best.
Spread your 5 servings of vegetables throughout the day.  Try to get one in for breakfast.
Shakeology counts for 2 servings of vegetables (and 1 serving of protein).

Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Everyone needs healthy fats, just not too much.
​Eat a max 240 calories of healthy fats per day - that's roughly 27g of fat.
Here's a tip - you'll have to track your calories on this so you don't go over, so use an app like "Myfitnesspal" to track it, or keep up with how much fat is in each serving.
More than likely you won't be able to have but 1 serving of a fat each day.
