Entering the Zone

Zone Diet Food Blocks.  This is a pretty good list of 1 Block for the types of foods you should be eating on the Zone.  This is a good guide and starting point, # 100mg and it kind of explains how to block your meals, but we’ll do more explaining in the coming days and weeks.
Google is your friend with the Zone.  Different sources may provide different slightly recommendations, such as you may see chicken at 1.25 ounces per block, while it is 1.5 ounces on other sites.  In the end, I wouldn’t go crazy about a .25 ounce.  Start simple by reading up on Zone blocks.
Just a thought – bananas and bacon are hard to find – that’s because I don’t think Sears or the Zone recommends you eat them.  Boo.
