Fat Can Be Your Friend!?


NOM NOM!!!

Recently a coworker asked me about healthy snack foods and what she was eating for lunch. After some discussion I came to find out that her lunch had little to no fat. Her response for me was "duh, that's the Idea". My response to this was, NOPE!

This is a common myth with many people trying to tighten up their diet, the less fat you eat the more fat you lose. This is not exactly true. I'm not talking about any fat either, there favorable sources of fat consumed in proper portions that can benefit you. The thing about fat is that it contains 9 calories per gram compared to protein and carbohydrates which each contain 4 calories per gram. So foods high in fat naturally are going to be higher in calories. Rather than just focusing on low fat intake concentrate more so on the amount of calories you are eating, and try to balance the portions of protein carbs, and fat in each meal. Dr Sears Zone recommends the calories in meals to be 30% from Protein, 40% from carbs, and 30% from fat.

Some favorable sources of fat include, Nuts, seeds, avocado, and various oils. These are fats that can increase your good cholesterol which can help prevent heart disease.

Time to trade in the cheese burgers and ice cream for some almonds and avocado!

Friday Quote


"It's simply a matter of doing what you do best and not worrying about what the other fellow is going to do."

-John R. Amos


This quote really puts some of my thoughts into words. Sometimes people get so caught up in competition, and other peoples performance rather than focusing on what they are doing themselves. This just ends up becoming a distraction and prevents you from completing your tasks efficiently.

By the way, I am attempting to eat pretty strict palio for 30 days minus two or three cheat meals during the week...I will try to not even have that much. I am going to keep a food journal of what I eat to help with the experiment. Let me know if your interested, I can help you get started. It's going to take a lot of effort but the results will be worth it.
