\nSince I started counting Macros the number one question I’m asked is – What do\/can you eat? The answer typically is – Anything I want! Of course, it has to fit within my numbers, but nothing is really off limits.<\/p>\n

Let’s get real for a minute. I use to think oh I shouldn’t eat this or that and avocado is healthy. The fact of the matter is sugar is sugar and fat is fat. While avocado is a “good” fat it’s still fat. So if you’re eating a half a medium avocado a day (which I use to between breakfast and lunch) you’re eating roughly 11 grams of fat! Yup, I bet you didn’t know that because I surely didn’t. I’m not saying don’t eat it I’m just saying it’s time to think about the amount of foods you’re eating throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Before I started counting macros I was high on carbs and fat, but now I’m balanced. Once I started eating a balanced ratio I started to see a shift not only in weight, but overall body composition. I should also mention I feel amazing, my skins looks better than ever and my body is processing food efficiently.<\/p>\n

So you want to know what I eat? During the week I’m pretty boring, but here’s roughly what my day  looks like:
\n
<\/b>
\nBreakfast<\/b>
\nSlice Sourdough toast
\n.40 oz unsalted butter
\n92 grams eggs whites (from 2-3 eggs), salt + pepper to taste
\n1-2 tbsp salsa
\n1 cup coffee
\n2 tbsp vanilla coconut creamer
\n(most days there’s a second cup of coffee and I always build it in as a just in case)<\/p>\n

Lunch<\/b>
\n1.5 oz baby spinach
\n50g diced bell pepper
\n2 oz diced cucumber
\n1 hard boiled egg (sometimes no yolk — depending if I have the extra fat)
\n3 oz shredded chicken
\n2 tbsp boathouse dressing<\/p>\n

Dinner<\/b>
\n133g roasted sweet potatoes
\n100g Roasted Broccoli
\n5 oz Shredded or Grilled Chicken
\n2 tbsp hot salsa<\/p>\n

Snacks<\/b>
\nProtein Shake (43g Amazing Grass<\/a>, 1 oz spinach, 1 oz strawberries, 1 cup water and a few ice cubes)
\nRed Top Plain greek Yogurt topped with 1 oz strawberries and 1 tsp honey or Chocolate PB2<\/a>
\n2 – Caramel Rice Cakes<\/a><\/p>\n

Currently, I try to hit the following numbers: <\/b>150g Carbs, 42 grams Fat and 115g protein totaling 1,438 calories. This will change as we shift from the “cut” phase to the “rebuilding” phase.<\/p>\n

Alright, I challenge you to track your food for a day and to see what you’re really eating. Be honest with yourself. Is it balanced? Are you eating enough food? Maybe you’re overeating?<\/p>\n

Have any other questions about macros or my workouts just comment below.<\/p>\n
