If I was trying to lose weight, most of my calories would come from these 5 foods:
Chicken Breast (Boneless/Skinless)
4oz = 120 calories / 25g protein / 2g fat / 0g carbs
4oz = 120 calories / 25g protein / 2g fat / 0g carbs
Eggs (Whole)
1 egg = 70 calories / 6g protein / 5g fat / 0g carbs
1 egg = 70 calories / 6g protein / 5g fat / 0g carbs
Ground Turkey (93/7)
4oz = 170 calories / 24g protein / 8g fat / 0g carbs
4oz = 170 calories / 24g protein / 8g fat / 0g carbs
Greek Yogurt (Dannon Light & Fit or Oikos Triple Zero)
1 serving = 80 calories / 12g protein / 0g fat / 8g carbs
1 serving = 80 calories / 12g protein / 0g fat / 8g carbs
Pizza (Whole Pie)
1 pizza = 2,000+ calories / ~50g protein / A LOT of fat / A LOT of carbs
So…why pizza?
Well, it doesn’t have to be pizza…
But it should (probably) be some food you really enjoy that you can’t feasibly consume DAILY while dieting BUT can consume ONCE PER WEEK while dieting!
Even when dieting down to single digit body-fat, I still manage to fit pizza in my diet once per week 😋
Note: This is not me giving you a license to binge like an asshole once per week. Work pizza or whatever your “fun food” is INTO your weekly regimen (budget those calories in) and then you won’t even be going off plan at all! It’ll already be accounted for! No “cheating” necessary 😉
You can refrain from having any type of “fun meal” once per week while dieting but be realistic…are you really about to go 8, 10, 12, 15+ weeks without ever having your favorite food??? If not, it’s better to just make the consumption of that food PART OF YOUR PLAN rather than attempting to stave off a binge constantly!
