  1. Maximize Fat Loss

  2. Proper Combinations • Eating foods in the proper combinations and quantities can help maximize fat loss.

  3. Make Protein the Center of Every Meal • Minimum of 15 grams of protein at every meal • Protein promotes a feeling of satiety • Keeps you full longer than carbs because it takes longer to digest • When consumed with carbs it slows down the time it takes to metabolize the carbs as well

  4. Other Benefits of Protein • You cannot live without proteins • Many hormones are made of proteins • Used to manufacture red blood cells to carry oxygen • Essential for healthy maintenance of • Muscles • Organs • Skin • Nails

  5. Boosting metabolism • Your body burns more calories when digesting proteins than it does fats and carbs • Therefore eating proteins can boost metabolism

  6. Weight loss • When people lose weight it is often coming from their lean body mass • Often because they are not consuming enough protein • Replacing one of two snacks a day with high protein snacks such as greek yogurt or cottage cheese can help increase protein intake

  12. Dairy Dilema • Most dairy is a combination of protein and carbs and many dairy products are also loaded with fat • Check the label to see how many grams of each and whichever is the highest is the category it’s in • And that is also true of any packaged foods

  13. Carbohydrates • It is important to eat carbohydrates in the right combination and quantifies in order to keep blood sugar level even • Common fast carbs such as breads and bagels should be consumed in serving sizes of no more than 27.5 grams (or 110 calories) a slice.

  14. Fast Carbs • Apple • Bagel- 1 whole (3-4 inches in diameter) • Banana- 1medium • Beans (dried)- ½ cup • Bread- 2 slices • English muffin- 1 • Honeydew melon- 2 cups • Milk- 1 cup • Orange- 1 medium • Sweet potato- 1 cup • Watermelon- 2 cups

  20. Beverages • When you drink alcohol your liver’s priority is the removal of alcohol from your blood. The amount of alcohol listed on the next slide is the amount that your liver can process while maintaining it’s other metabolic functions. • If more is consumed the liver will stop metabolizing fats and therefore, when you drink too much you are more likely to gain fat.

  21. What to drink • Juices made from fast carb fruits (orange)- 8 ounces • Juices made from slow carb vegetables (carrot)- 12 ounces • Wine- 5 ounces • Soda or beer- 12 ounces • Milk- 8 ounces • Drink all you want of coffee and hot or iced tea. However when you add honey or half and half they are considered snacks. • Water- drink enough that your urine is clear and so that you are never actually thirsty.

  22. How to make a fat burning meal- 1:1:1 ratio • 1 portion protein: 1 portion fast carbs: 1 portion slow carbs • Example- turkey, baked potato, and a vegetable • Or, turkey, a vegetable, and a glass of wine • Or, spaghetti and meatballs and a side salad • Eating fast and slow carbs together slows down the rate at which you metabolize the fast carbs and you get to eat one of each with your protein

  23. 1:3 Ratio • 1 portion protein: 3 portions of slow carbs • Example: a big salad with chicken on top • Or, a stir-fry with three veggies and a portion of cube steak • Because slow carbs are metabolized slowly, you get to eat 2 portions for every one portion of fast carbs

  24. 1:1 Ratio • 1 portion of protein: 1 portion fast carbs • Example: scrambled eggs and toast • Or, steak and a baked potato • Because fast carbs are metabolized quickly, you can only eat on portion when you are not also eating a slow carb to slow it down

  25. Snacking • To keep blood sugar level, you must snack • Eat at least 2 snacks (morning and afternoon) • 2 to 3 hours after your previous meal • helps keep you from binging at your next meal
