These 3 foods SAVED my diet (article)


Once upon a time, I was on a diet. Everything was going soooo well. Then I got hungry.

So I ate whatever was convenient...and alas, my diet was no more.

:.-(

Another time I was traveling and made some bad choices at the airport.

Another time I got really busy, then I was starving, and then I overate...by like...a lot.

Another time I skipped a bunch of meals and then wound up eating something totally not on my diet because hey, I already missed so many meals so what was the point.

Does any of this sound familiar?

If so, allow me to introduce you to my three best friends: Fruit, Nuts, and Beef Jerky.

With fruit, nuts, and beef jerky it's virtually impossible to screw up on your diet. They're convenient (zero prep time), they're portable (you can take them anywhere), and they're awesome (no parentheses needed...but I used them anyway).

Nuts are great source of healthy fat, and they contain a modest amount of protein to boot. Fruit is as portable as it gets while being loaded with healthy low glycemic carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. Beef jerky is a yummy ultra portable protein snack.

If you've read my other writing, you know I often recommend eating two types of meals: protein + fat, and protein + carbs

Well, just so happens you can create either type of meal, quickly and with zero prep, with these three ingredients:

Beef Jerky + Nuts = Protein + Fat

Beef Jerky + Fruit = Protein + Carbs

And there you go.

Religiously carry fruit, nuts, and beef jerky with you wherever you go. Throw it in your car, your purse, your desk, your gym bag, your pockets...wherever.

When you need it, it will be there. And you don't have to worry about screwing up on your diet anymore, because you'll be prepared.

That's what it's all about. Enjoy ;)
