One Day on the Zone Diet

Posted May 20 2010 9:33pm

Happy Friday, everyone!

Lately, I’ve been asked to share my ZONE diet and the foods I eat in a typical day.

The following is an example of a weekday- “I’m in a rush” what to eat kind of day. My workouts end at 7AM. Immediately following this, I rush home and feed the family, shower and pack lunches for everybody- out the door at 8:15AM. Smoothies for breakfast are the easiest and fastest way I can consume calories in a rush.


Milk + 1 1/2 cups of mixed frozen fruit + 1 scoop of protein powder + 3-6 Macademia nuts (on the side). Blend and drink during 1st phys ed class of the day.


Mid morning treat: Iced Americano with 1 tablespoon of cream

So that’s it. I base my days on 12 blocks per day with maybe a bit extra thrown in at night or an extra nut or chocolate at night. I have plenty of energy to do my workouts and teach yoga and PE all day long. Remember that this is a day of RUSH. If time were not option, there would be gigantic omelets and salads being consumed instead.

One valuable MUST HAVE item for the Zone diet is the food scale. I was lucky enough to receive the Eat Smart Digital Food Scale and have found it to be invaluable to my zone diet- mainly in the areas of measuring meats! Available on Amazon for $25.

You can read more about the Zone diet here.
Any questions?!
