The 2014 Diet of Nina Sug: Its the 6-6-6- Food Plan
Hello Everyone who asks me what I eat. And yes, I understand that being 50 years old, 9% body fat and over 50% MUSCLE makes me look "different." So, the 2 questions that show the greatest understanding of what I look like are:
1] What do you eat?
2] How many hours a week do you workout?
Here is my current food pattern that is constantly in transition and flux. I always obseve new information, try stuff and respond to my internal body cues. So it is a conversation, so to speak, between my physical state, my food sources and selections and constantly varied opinions and odd studies published here and there.
Morning:
I start the day with 3 Cups of Bullet Proof Coffee. [Yes you may Google that.]
It is essentially starting the day with 300 calories of pure fat and a slug of brain nurturing anti-oxidents with "good" fats. I adore it. I buy my organic coffe at the Groundwork next to the gym that I manage. CrossFit Mean Streets Downtown Los Angeles
Intermittent Fasting:
I am not rigid about this. I may fall asleep before midnight then with the 300 calories of oil for breakfast, not begin eating my food until about noon. This pattern is currently nicknamed intermittent-fasting
Food Preparation:
I attended a training called KitchenKarate I bought a ton of 8 ounce containers all over town. I am concerned with size, shape, durability, tactile appropriateness and leaking. I prepare all my food at home. I portion it immediately into 8 ounce containers. I port all my food in these containers with me in a rolling cooler to avoid carrying loads on one shoulder and to deter my food obsessed miniature pincher from raiding my angus burgers and baby carrots when I turn my attention to other concerns.
My food pattern:
I daily with variety eat 3 meat servings. I also to add about 50 grams of protein a day to my intake make and consume egg white pacakes. The egg whites are 2 Cups daily prepared without grains, sugars or fat.
I allow unlimited vegetables and attempt to eat 5 different colors a day with wide variety. Everything is raw or steamed. I use little sauces but do make sugar free dressings and enjoy sot sauce.
Carb Cycling Casually:
Ilove Japanese Purple yams and yams. So I might serve up some of those roughly every 4-10 days. Nothing is precise with me. I am an artistic soul with an engineering degree. Everything in my head is analytical and abstractly cross referenced like a huge collage of data and pictures from my entire life.
MacroNutrient Ratios:
I started with targeting 150 grams of protein a day given my weight of 115 pounds. The remainder of my caloric daily intake is mixed between Fat and Carbohydrate. I estimated that my fat consumption is near 65 grams a day.
I eat a full 8 ounces of raw nuts and raw peanuts eery day or I go crazy.
I include dark chocolates of 72% or higher everyday, or I go crazy....I eat chocolate to protect those near me. Ha Ha! Its a girl thing...
So back calculating my consumption of about 1800 calories daily it is 600 calories each of fat/carbohydrate/protein.
My girlfriend eating 2000 calories a day would eat 666/666/666. And I am not gay, I just call my girlfriends that term. Trust me I am so straight - lucky dude knows just how straight....
I make thai curry chicken meatballs cooked 6 pounds in a batch often. Angus burgers break up all the chicken eating. I enjoy fish and tuna.
I drink 2-6 ounces of red wine daily also.
You might live to be 100 or you could die before nightfall. So i tend to think for enjoying each day, with the understanding I wish to be happy lively and comfortable as a centurion. The FOUNDATION for that is each day everyday.
I hope that launches you on some increased self respect expressed through your food portions and selections. Living in public sharing good decision making is a great arena for taking care of yourself.
Good Luck!
