Phase One Nutrition: Slingshot
Phase 1 is designed to boost and raise your metabolism. Your metabolism is controlled by the amount of times you eat daily. The more often you eat, the higher you can raise your metabolism. If you are only eating once or twice daily, you will never be able to lose the amount of weight you are capable of! Think of your body like a lump of clay on a potter’s wheel. Every time you eat, you spin the wheel. We must get the wheel spinning before we can mold your body. Phase 1 is designed to spin up your metabolism for a solid week, then drop you right into Phase 2 next week as we begin the exercise and start to manipulate the diet for effective weight loss.
Phase 1 Rules:
- You MUST eat at least 5 times daily.
- Select a food from each of the columns and combine for a complete meal.
- Drink at least a gallon of water daily
