“What do my meals consist of?

- Proteins – Eggs, fish, kangaroo, lean beef, lean turkey, chicken breast.
- Fats – Avocado, nuts, seeds, MCT oils.

“I also ensure that I am getting my micro nutrients as they play an essential role in overall health, muscle building, weight loss, and strength. Additional health foods like green tea, apple cider vinegar, and lemon water are also something I add to my daily routine.”
“If I have a goal of losing weight and hunger strikes, I focus on having more calorie dilute foods that help to keep me fuller for longer. Fruits like watermelon which are liquid dense are a great snack as they keep me fuller being filled with lots of water too.”
