Insulin Triggers
I thought today would be a good day to remind you about insulin triggers. These are the first foods you need to eliminate because they're high in sugar or starch. And, the longer you're on the Sexy Forever plan, the harder it may be to avoid insulin trigger foods, because some of them are really tasty.
So, here's a brief list of some of the starchy fruits and vegetables you'll want to cut from your diet in the initial phases of the Sexy Forever Plan: acorn squash, beets, bananas, butternut squash, carrots, corn, Hubbard squash, parsnips, potatoes, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and yams. Don't worry, they're not gone forever — you'll be able to indulge from time to time once you're on the later phases of the plan.
Breakfast - Quinoa and non-fat milk.
AM Snack - bowl of grapes
Lunch - Leftover hamburgers and portobello mushrooms with pesto sauce from Day 62. When I opened the container, I could smell that heavenly aroma leftover from the grill. Yummo!
PM Snack - My favorite, a whole grain Wasa crisp and fresh salsa from the deli.
Dinner - Leftover Chicken Parmigiana and sauteed cabbage with goat cheese from yesterday. I love leftover days because there's no cooking. Yeah! And, as always, whenever I prepare a meal, I always make enough for several days. You should, too. And this recipe is definitely one you'd enjoy as leftovers.
