1 block of Protien = 7 grams
1 block of Carb = 9 grams
1 block of Fat = 1.5 grams
By applying the above rules. We can figure out the zone block for this Healthy Choice meal: Mesquite Beef W/Bbq Sauce, Roasted Red Potatoes, and Corn,Carrot Pea Medley, Frozen Meal
We see a very unbalanced meal, it doesn't meet the basic guidlines for a good zone meal. It fall short in every catergory. Not to mention it is approxmently 53% carb. Bad choice overall. I would be willing to predict a sleepy feeling after eating and the inability to concenrate. So what is a good Lunch meal?? well how about this 3 block choice:
Deli sandwich style
1 slice of bread ( more grain better....however I am a non bread person)
1 0z of cheese ( thats approx one slice)
1/2 tsp of mayo
3 oz of lean sandwich meat ( roast beef is really good....smoked turked is second in my book)
3 almonds 3 peanuts
1/2 apple or orange
For those going wow that looks like a normal lunch..... I would suggest you weigh that 3 oz of meat, I am fairly sure your skimmping yourself. Shoot over to target or the wally-world and get a digitil scale ( should only run you 20 bucks.... I have had my $20.00 version for approx 2 yrs) It will help tremendously. Well enjoy I hope to see you at the Compound.
Well hello there for joining me on the "net". I am not a computer person so this is an undertaking alone. So first off most are here for Food info. So let me help you a bit. Right side of the screen is a bunch of links. CF journal 21 is clickable and you can download it right from there. Great base line resource. The Zone is a great place to get pre-made block recipes. So enough of that here is a copy of the CF-21. An below will be another clickable link for you to follow.
