Food Log For 7/6/2011 to 7/12/2011

Here is my food log for the week of 7/6/2011 to 7/12/2011.

I generally eat the same foods and I generally try to keep it as simple as possible.  My meals usually take less than 30 minutes to prepare.

I don't claim to be perfect or right on the money every time.  However, this week I really focused on weighing, measuring, and logging all my meals so that I would be pretty accurate.

I strongly recommend this for everyone who is trying the Zone for the first time.  I also recommend this for the person (like myself), who has weighed and measured their food/blocks in the past, but needs to dial in and fine tune some things.
