You Doing You with Game On


I don't want to confuse people who might be reading my Game On posts.
 
My whole reason for doing this is not just to follow a random diet plan.  I researched a bit on how to obtain vitamins from the food I eat instead of taking a multivitamin. Then I decided to incorporate those foods into the Game-On Diet.  So that's why I'm eating a ton of dark leafy greens, avocados, salmon, chicken breast, eggs, wheat germ, greek yogurt, milk, oranges, bananas etc. That's why my food looks like a Microsoft clip-art of groceries.
 
So for two days now I've been eating this way and I realized that there is a lot more food you can eat on Game-On than I'm eating.
 
There's a huge variety of things to eat on Game On.  Tweak it to fit your goals and tastes.  Personally, I like eating exactly what I'm eating.  That way on my day off I can savor other foods I also like without guilt, knowing I'm getting a lot of nutrition on most days. I could do that just by following Game-On by itself rather than counting vitamin percentages.
 
Which is great.  On Game-On, if you want to eat a small piece of pizza with whole grain crust, fat-free mozzerella, dipped in olive oil and covered with vegetables as a sanctioned meal, you can. If you want a white baked potato, you can eat it.  If you want whole-grain toast with apple butter, go for it. Just balance these things out with a little protein.
 
Just because I'm not eating these things does not mean you can't.  Go nuts! (In thumb-sized portions!)
