Six Pack Shopping List

Ever been to the grocery store and started at the shelves not knowing what to buy. I don’t blame you. Shopping these days can be as daunting as a an all in call in Texas holdem poker. Words used to describe food these days are extremely cryptic and generic. What is the difference between “lite” and “light”? Is it just a case of wrong spelling or does it have a deeper meaning? The next one that gets me is “Whole Grain” and “Multi Grain”. Does one have more than the other? Does anyone sell real butter anymore?

I am not going to attempt to answer these questions, but instead focus on products that have been labeled correctly and are part of a healthy well rounded diet for six pack abs. You can print and carry this list to make your weight loss and six pack shopping experience much better!

Some tips on finding the best food is to read the label on the packaging. In general it is good to buy food that has less added sugar, low sodium and low simple carbohydrates. Add points for high fiber and protein.

Here are some of the “best” common items available at the grocery store

1. Best Eggs

Egglands Best. Each egg contains hearty omega 3 fatty acids.

2. Best Bread

Pepperidge farm 100% whole wheat bread. You can never go wrong with quality toast.

3. Best Waffles

Vans multi-grain waffles. You can spread some real butter on the tasty waffle for better taste.

4. Best Milk

Organic valley reduced fat 2%. I always prefer 2% since it tastes better than skim milk.

5. Best Yogurt

Fage reduced fat 2%. This is a great tasting yogurt and comes with a side of honey!

6. Best Cheese

Cypress Grove, Fresh Chevre is an all purpose cheese. This is great for an afternoon snack.

7. Best Olive Oil

8. Best Pizza

South beach diet, Phase 2 pizza. The portion size is just perfect, plus it is one of my favorite diets.

Always make sure you read the label before buying products. It is easier to do your research and stick to your favorites instead of deciphering fancy words at the grocery store!
