Be careful with snacks like biltong, nuts even the crackling, these we like to call domino foods. Domino foods are foods that you intend having a piece or two and then end up eating the whole packet.
Your next meal or dinner will be the similar in size or smaller than your first meal of the day to satiety. Eating a dinner similar or smaller in size to breakfast sets you up rather well for that big breakfast tomorrow morning.
Dinner may end up having less fat than breakfast and is your ideal opportunity to add lots of vegetables and a palm size protein of choice.
The simple rule of thumb for vegetables is if it’s green and grows above the ground you can eat it. If it grows above the ground and has colour you can eat it occasionally. Stay away from vegetables that grow under the ground at least until you have corrected your health markers.
You will notice that we keep vegetables and dairy for later in the day. If you consider that your net carbs, eating breakfast to satiety, will be extremely during the day you will find that you have a lot more freedom to make vegetable choices at night.
