Don’t eat salad!!!!!!

If I were (and I do) to ask 10 random people what they eat during the day, 9 of them would have some sort of “salad” in there during the day…. Mmmmmm how delicious and super healthy – NOT!!!!

Let me unravel the mystery about salads, because yeah they are healthy, sometimes, and that’s a BIG sometimes.

But only if you play it by the rules.

See, when you eat salads there are 3 things you want to avoid.

First, skip the iceberg lettuce.  Iceberg lettuce has almost ZERO nutrients, so you might as well just drink water.  Instead, go for the darker green lettuce like Romaine – or if you want to be perfect and eat like Superman or Superwoman, then go for Kale.  Kale is one of the most nutrient-dense foods out there. Eat Kale once a week and you’ll be way hotter than your jealous friends.

Eat it twice a week and you get x-ray vision like Superman!  Wait a minute what if you ate Kale and Spinach… Now we’re talking Superman and Popeye!!!

Next up.. is to avoid the fatty dressings.

We all know this, we all know that dressing is what turns salads into 'calorie bombs,' but did you know that most ‘home made’ ranch dressings are made out of mayonnaise and buttermilk?   

One time I took Angelina Jolie out to eat. When it was time to order she got a slice of pizza and asked for a side of buttermilk (Ranch) to dip the pizza in.  I said “woah!” and walked away, (..never heard from her again) Ok that was a joke about Angelina Jolie…. she ordered a grilled cheese.

When it comes to dressing, yes we all know that it’s bad – but if you HAVE to have it, then get it as a side and dip your fork in it..  Then load that fork up with the kale/romaine lettuce and chew it thoroughly.

LASTLY.. there is this one ingredient that will kill your fat loss instantly.

.. CROUTONS

Don’t put these in your salad – did you know a crouton is a piece of fried bread?

There is nothing good about fried bread.  Angelina Jolie doesn’t eat croutons and she looks weird, Jessica Biel doesn’t eat croutons and she looks great

So don’t eat croutons.

I hope this made sense, make sure you LOAD up your salad with the good stuff.

And before I sign off, keep working hard, and I want to remind you to eat MORE vegetables than you think you need – they are by far the biggest sexy-maker out there.

Yes, as sexy as leather jackets, Harley Davidson and Deadlifting!

Yours in health,
