Default Re: My FitDay Results

Overall it looks really good!

The only thing that has to be changed is veggies. Your menu yesterday had 8 oz of spinach, which means about 8 cups. Spinach is on the "Other Vegetables" list, so it's limited to 1 cup per day. You should eat only 3 cups of veggies per day, which means that if 1 cup comes from spinach, you have 2 cups left for "Salad Vegetables".

Salad vegetables don't necessarily have to be eaten raw, but they can be cooked too. You can make individual mushroom pizzas, roasted peppers, you can include veggies in things like soups, omelets or quiches... Just because they are called "salad vegetables" you don't have to eat them in salads.

Also check the processed meats (sausages, salami) for hidden sugars (e.g. dextrose) or fillers.... but other than that, I think you're doing great.

How was the lasagna you made last night? I imagine that's where those 8 oz of spinach came from.
