FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS CONT.
Q: I'm going to a wedding on Saturday and will have to eat
something at the reception. Will that wipe out all my efforts
for the week?
A: No, not all your efforts. If it's a buffet, just choose fruits or
vegetables and a plain protein like shrimp. If it's a sit down
dinner, you might be able to ask for the chicken or fish with
no starch or sauce. In any case, try to make healthful choices
and limit yourself to one piece of wedding cake and avoid
carbs in the meal. Then recommit to my program the very
next day.
Q: Should I eat before I do the workout and, if so, how soon?
A: Ideally, it's best to eat beforehand, but do wait 20 minutes
before beginning the workout.
Q: I can't find some of the things you recommend on the plan.
What should I do?
A: I've given options for some items, but if you can't find any
of them, try these: For the protein bars, substitute an under
200 calorie bar of your choice preferable one with more than
15 grams of protein. For the frozen Function Lightweight or
Arctic Zero, try an under 160 calorie ice cream sandwich.
Instead of the Garden-Lite soufflé, go with scrambled
egg whites, as suggested.
