that helps. If it does, that’s your new
personalized template. If it doesn’t, then add
some more fat—the great equalizer. Continue
to add fat in small quantities until you hit that
sweet spot—enough food to support activity
levels, energy, and appetite, but not so much
that you start getting flabby or putting on
weight.
Finally, your own personal template will
change over time. As your activity level
changes and you lose weight or put on muscle
mass, your nutritional needs will change too.
So it’s always important to pay attention to
those signals, and not to rely on today’s
“perfect” template to fuel you a year from
now.
So there you have it—you are now an
expert meal planner!
Congratulations.
