Containers

For this specific track, we will be relying on portion controlled containers to measure our food. Additional details regarding the Container track can be found below..

Eat Real food – Real food was once alive and doesn’t come from a box or container. If it has a long shelf life and is a man-made, edible, food-like substance; not food. You must eat from the approved food lists below.

Don’t eat too much – This means 3-5 meals a day, no seconds and no snacking. We will rely on the portion controlled containers to measure our food for this specific track. You must eat the correct amount of meals every day. (see chart below for how many meals you should be eating. Or.. talk to your coach!)

Food List:

Protein
Protein will go in one of the small compartments of your tray. The leaner the better. Grass-fed and organic are ideal. Wild-caught cold water fish are the best.

Carbs
Carbs will go in the other small compartment. We want to have nutrient-dense carbohydrates. Fruits and these starchy carbs will do that for us.

Vegetables
Vegetables will go in the large part of your container. Each meal must have at least this many vegetables. Diversify what vegetables are on your plate from meal to meal to ensure you are getting all the nutrients your body needs.

Fats
A serving of fat is the size of your thumb, about one tablespoon. Here are the healthy options like avocado, olive and avocado oil, and nuts.


FAQ

How many trays?

*A full container refers to a container stuffed as full as possible while still being able to close the lid. A normal container is one that is not packed full but you still fill each compartment.
*Veggies go in the large compartment, protein in one of the small compartments, and carbs in the other small compartment. You are allowed a thumb size of fat, 1 tbsp of fat, or 1 small handful of nuts as your fat. We will be providing everyone with 2 containers each.
*As with any nutrition plan, this is a starting point. You won’t know how your body will respond in advance, so stay flexible and open minded. We will adjust your portions based on your hunger, fullness, and other important goals.

Pre/Post Workout?
This is based on your personal goals. Protein shakes will be allowed within 30 minutes of your workout. Although it is not required, it is important you are getting adequate fuel throughout the day to speed recovery and restore glycogen levels. However, if weight loss is your goal- we recommend sticking to whole foods and consuming a meal within 1-2 hours of your workout. Recommendations:
Weight loss: Skip the shake unless you haven’t eaten in a while.
Maintain/Increase performance: listen to your body. If you are having a hard time eating a meal within 2 hours after your workout, grab a shake and some starchy carbs to replenish after your workout.
