So how long am I doing this 'Green Faces Diet?' Right now, I am doing 'Phase 1' which lasts 21 days, and or three weeks. During Phase 1, I am only allowed to eat lean proteins and green vegetables which helps drop body fat quickly, clean up my nutrition and help break those bad habits and or issues I have with food. (i.e. COOKIES and CEREAL! Yes, Total Cereal is still NOT good for you.) I'm eating FIVE meals a day, (Yes, that's a high-FIVE, like the old skool R&B group) and I've been doing my best to eat a wide variety of foods from the list below.
PROTEINS (Must have one at every meal)
Any Fish - Beef - Bacon - Chicken - Cod - Cornish - Game -Hen - Duck - Eggs - Flounder - Fowl - Goose - Halibut - Ham - Kidney - Liver - Lamb - Pork Chop/Lean Pork - Salmon - Shellfish (Shrimp, Crab, Lobster) - Spare Rib - Tuna - Turkey - Veal - Whey Protein Shake (No Carbs) - Wild Game
CARBOHYDRATES (Only GREEN Vegetables)
Artichoke - Asparagus - Broccoli - Brussel Sprouts - Cabbage - Cauliflower - Cerely - Collard Greens - Cucumber - Eggplant - Green Beans - Green Beet - Green Peppers - Leafy Greens - Mushrooms - Onions (Green & White) - Peas - Romaine Lettuce - Spinach - Squash - Tomato - Zucchini

FATS! (Use Freely)
Almond Oil - Coconut Oil - Flax Oil - Olive Oil - Peanut Oil - Sesame Oil - Sunflower Oil - Walnut Oil
So there you have it. For 21 days it's not that bad right? After I make it through these next three weeks, it's onto Phase II, which I will explain as I get closer to day 21.
Until then... please note this one simple rule to follow:
"If your ancestors 10,000 years ago didn't eat it, you should not eat it either!"
You're going to have to explain these oils that you can "use freely" LOL...all I can picture is you pouring them on your meat and veggies!
