Jamie Eason's Diet: Eating Clean

Think of these food lists as general guides to what you should include in your diet. The lists include examples of what can be included, but are certainly not complete lists. If you have a healthy alternative that's not here, give it a try.
You don't have to include everything in your diet either. Pick and choose what fits best for you according to taste, cost and availability. Preferences change from person to person, so choose what tastes best to you.
If you like what you eat, you'll enjoy the meal plan and stick to it.


Oils: use sparingly

 

Fatty proteins

Healthy fats are often built into the meals. In the event they are not, pay attention to the serving size. Males typically get a full serving and females, a half serving.

 

Lean proteins 

 Ladies: 6 - 8 oz portion, Guys: 8 - 10 oz portion

 

Flours

 

Sweeteners

 

Fruits

It's best to choose berries in the morning and a citrus or banana directly following your workout, to eat in conjunction with your protein.

acid (high water content, low cal):

Sweet (more calorie & nutrient dense)


These are to be used before a workout because they are more insulin-responsive.

Vegetables


Prepare vegetables by either steaming or grilling (may also eat raw). Stay away from anything sauteed or fried.
