2 results EATING PLAN Good news! You can be lean for life and still enjoy your food: This is not a diet. This is an easy-to-follow blueprint for healthy eating. Everyone knows it s healthy to eat more fruits and vegetables, but fresh, unprocessed food isn t always convenient. You ve been conditioned to believe that if you re forced to eat on the run, your choices are whittled down to burgers and soda. But your diet will be healthier and more satisfying if you eat foods that are as close to their natural state as they can get. But, hey, eating healthy food takes more planning than eating junk does, so chances are, your lifestyle is going to have to change a little bit. Chalene s aim is to make this transition as easy as possible. This plan is designed to fit into your life. It s the perfect balance of structure and flexibility. EATING TURBO STYLE Choose a breakfast, a lunch, a dinner, and two snacks. You ll have the energy you need for your workouts, and the proper nutrition to get the results you re after! You can mix and match any of the recipes listed here based on your preferences or lifestyle and continue to use them for as long as you like. And to keep your menu varied and exciting, you can also use the delicious meals from the Turbo Slim 10-Day Kick Start plan. (Just remember to add your snacks to keep your up!) Without customization, the plan totals approximately 1,500 per day. Take a look at the next page to see how many you should be eating and learn to adjust the plan for your needs. And if you d like a little more nutritional support, you can log on to TeamBeachbody.com to get all your questions answered. CUSTOMIZE YOUR PLAN IN TWO SIMPLE STEPS Obviously, we all require a different number of each day, since people come in different sizes and have different weight loss needs. Only you can truly tell if your plan is allowing you to lose weight while still providing you with enough energy, but here s an easy way to get close to your ideal number of. STEP ONE: FIGURE OUT YOUR CALORIE TARGET. Start with these three simple calculations: A. YOUR CURRENT WEIGHT IN POUNDS X 11 = YOUR CALORIC BASELINE B. YOUR CALORIC BASELINE (TURBO JAM CALORIE BURN) = YOUR CALORIC NEEDS C. YOUR CALORIC NEEDS 750 (CALORIC DEFICIT) = YOUR CALORIE TARGET

3 To make this plan easier to use (not to mention making your life easier in general), round that number up to the nearest hundred. For example, if your Calorie Target is 1,665, round up to 1,700. If your Calorie Target is any number less than 1,200, simply round up to 1,200. STEP TWO: ADJUST THE PLAN TO SUIT THOSE CALORIE NEEDS. As we mentioned earlier, the plan has about 1,500 a day. Most of you won t hit that number on the nose, so here s a chart to help you modify your plan it gives your daily caloric needs for weight loss, which you got from the equation; the number of to add to or subtract from the meal plan s daily 1,500-calorie base amount to achieve your number; and a suggestion of what food items to add or subtract to hit that number of per day. WHAT IF I M STILL HUNGRY? Hunger isn t usually a reliable sign that you need to eat more. It just means that you re not eating as much as you re used to (which was probably too much!). However, if you re feeling irritable; if your performance lags; or if your hunger is getting in the way of your daily routine, add 100 or 200 by moving down one or two lines in the calorie adjustment guide chart. Another option is to add a piece of fresh fruit to your plan. Fresh, fibrous produce is filling, but it ll also give you a nice little carbohydrate hit that ll energize you until your next meal. Daily Calorie Needs 1,200 1,300 1,400 1,500 1,600 1,700 1,800 1,900 2,000 CALORIE ADJUSTMENT GUIDE Adjustment 1, Food Items to Add/Subtract Skip a snack AND decrease protein from one meal each day by 2 oz. 1, Skip one snack each day. 1, Decrease protein from one meal each day by 2 oz. None Stick to the plan as written, picking one breakfast, one lunch, one dinner, and 2 snacks each day. 1, Add 2 oz. protein to one meal each day. 1, Add one extra snack. 1, Double your dinner each day. 1, Add two snacks OR double either your breakfast or lunch each day. 1, Double your dinner AND add one snack each day.

4 CHALENE S 11 SECRETS OF SUCCESS 1 Vigorous exercise won t stimulate you to overeat. It s just the opposite. Any level of exercise helps curb your appetite immediately following a workout, and is actually likely to make you crave healthy foods. 2 Distract yourself when you have a very strong craving. Cravings usually disappear after 2 minutes. Don t sit in front of the fridge negotiating with yourself. Instead, walk away and focus your attention elsewhere. And if you have a few food items that you simply can t resist, toss them! 3 Think W.I.W.M. When you really crave something unhealthy, finish this phrase: What I Want More is... Is it the piece of chocolate cake, or a body I m proud of? Nothing tastes as good as fitness feels! 4 As hard as it may seem to lose weight, it s more stressful, depressing, frustrating, embarrassing, and even life-threatening to remain overweight. 5 The large majority of people who struggle with late-night eating are those who skip meals or don t eat balanced meals during the day. Try to be consistent. 6 To help you reach your fitness goals, every TeamBeachbody.com member is partnered with a FREE Coach. Think of your Coach as your best friend in the Team Beachbody community. He or she started out as a customer, just like you. Simply put, your Coach wants you to get in the best shape of your life. Get your FREE Coach at TurboJamFreeCoach.com. 7 Put a sign on the kitchen and refrigerator doors: Closed after dinner. Water is open all night. 8 Brush your teeth right after dinner to get the taste of food out of your mouth and to make the statement: I m done eating! 9 Eat without engaging in any other simultaneous activity (i.e., no reading, TV, or sitting at the computer). Savor the food and you ll be more conscious of portions. 10 Move more and move more quickly. A slow metabolism is rarely to blame for the inability to lose weight. Rather, fit people tend to move more and more quickly. When they need something, they jump up and get it themselves. So take the stairs, take a walk, do some gardening, start your spring cleaning. Be an active person every hour of the day. Use the stairs instead of the elevator. And climbing two steps at a time is great for toning the glutes. 11 When shopping for food, try wholefood stores, as they stock very few of the tempting, unhealthy junk foods we find in most mainstream grocery stores. When you do go shopping at a regular grocery store, as a rule of thumb remember that the aisles are filled with processed foods, while most whole foods are found around the perimeter. That s how you avoid packaged items that contain hydrogenated oil, trans fat, shortening, and mega.

6 NOW A WORD ABOUT WATER Drinking enough water is a vital part of any conditioning program, as it will keep your body functioning in homeostasis and aid every aspect of bodily function. To make sure you re getting all the water you need, take your body weight in pounds and divide by two, then drink that many ounces of water each day. That means if you weigh 172 pounds, 172 divided by 2 equals 86, so that would be 86 ounces of water you should be drinking every day. Another great benefit of water is that drinking it means you re less likely to quench your thirst with sugary drinks like soda or juice. But if the notion of plain old boring H 2 O just seems too unappealing or uninteresting, here s a way to pep things up a little.

14 DINING-OUT GUIDE Dining out isn t an excuse to neglect your goals. Even though you aren t preparing this meal, you re still very much in control of the ingredients and portion size. For a satisfying and healthy dining experience, hold your ground, opt for healthy feel-good fuel, and try these guidelines: If a restaurant offers you a large portion, set aside the extra food to take home as soon as the plate is put in front of you. By allowing the plate to sit, especially if it s a favorite dish, you re more likely to pick at it until the entire oversized portion is gone. Don t fill up on empty bread or fattening pats of butter. Be proactive ask for crisp veggies and remove the bread if the rest of the table agrees. Enjoy your dining companions it s not an eating contest. Relax, sip some tea or water, pause between bites, and really savor the food and your time. Try refreshing alternatives to alcoholic beverages, like iced tea or natural lemonade. Aside from its empty, alcohol can erode your resolve to select healthy foods and to skip dessert. Chew your food. Your body is better able to utilize nutrients when they ve been properly broken down and the enzymes in your saliva can mix thoroughly with the food. Steer clear of fried and sautéed foods. Go for broiled, steamed, stir-fried, or poached options. Your meal won t be swimming in grease or butter, and you ll actually be able to taste the fresh ingredients. Ask that your meal be prepared with very little or no butter. Restaurants do that to order. Well, good ones do Beachbody, LLC. All rights reserved. TJINS1106 Rev. 6/27/14
