Time To Count Calories!
Up to this point, the focus with the meal plan has been to consume adequate calories to support your weight training goals. Moving forward, it will be necessary to determine a specific calorie range to increase your fat burning potential while maintaining your hard earned muscle.
Follow this simple formula to determine the number of calories you should consume moving forward, using the foods included in the meal plans:
- Multiply your goal weight by 10 to arrive at your baseline.
- Add between 200 and 500 calories to determine the ideal calorie range that will support the rest of your Phase Two and Phase Three workout routines.
(So, for me, that would be 110 (lbs) X 10 + 200 = 1300 and 110 (lbs) X 10 + 500 = 1600).
- On rest days and lighter days (arms, shoulders, abs), eat in the lower range (1,300 calories). On heavier days (chest, legs, back), eat in the higher range (1,600 calories).
- Once we arrive at Phase 3, the lower number will become the starting point for the carbohydrate cycling we'll do!

Phase 2 Diet Tips:
- Eat first meal within an hour of waking.
- Plan ahead! Designate a food preparation day.
- Measure and weigh everything whenever possible. Purchase measuring cups and a kitchen scale.
- Eat every three hours (usually 5 or 6 times a day, depending on when you wake up)! It's the secret to speeding up your metabolism. Be on time!
- Drink lots of water! May have coffee & tea with Stevia or a no-cal sweetener.
- Take a daily multivitamin. If lifting weights, you might consider taking an additional calcium supplement.
- Take one tablespoon of Flaxseed or Fish Oil daily. Flaxseed and fish oil actually aid in weight loss and encourages healthy bowel movements. (Mix in oatmeal or mashed sweet potato after heating food. Do not heat flaxseed.)
- Consistency is key! If you have a day where you slip up … Don't give up! Start fresh at your next meal or the next day. You can do it!

Wow, I've lost a total of 4.8 lbs and 1.4% body fat up to this point! Feels incredible! I've been taking my weight and body fat measurements every week, and only lost in the first week and in the last two weeks. The last two weeks I've been stricter with the diet, not having any cheat meals. The difference that that has made is unbelievable. Keep going jamie eason-ers! This program rocks :D xxx
