Daily
Leafy Greens
Nuts
Green Tea
3 times a week (at least)
Oily Fish
Yogurt
Broccoli
Avocado
1 time a week (can only have once a week)
Alcohol
0 times a week (or NEVER!)
Fast Food
Soda
Processed Meals
Canned Soups (click here for my recipes for homemade soups)

Another key component to his diet is eating breakfast, every single day. It is indeed the most important meal of the day.

There is a lot of flexible in it (fruits is a vast category). This plan with the right discipline could be maintained over the long haul and that is key to maintain weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.
