Zone Diet Meals Plan Sample

The most important aspect of Zone diet is the timing of your food or meal time. Like planning your daily activities, meal and snack times must be planned accordingly. Based on your wake up time, determine those time points throughout the day when it's time to eat your next meal or snack. You want to control the body's utilization of protein and carbohydrate consistently throughout the day, and you must eat a minimum of 3 meals and 2 snacks. A zone meal should provide you with 4-5 hours in the Zone, whereas a snack is good for approximately 2-2.5 hours. Additionally, you must eat within one hour after waking and don't forget your afternoon and late-night snack. You must eat every 4-5 hours whether you're hungry or not, no matter how busy you might be to stay in the Zone.
