Notes:
Inspired by Rich Roll’s Finding Ultra, I’ve modified by diet and decreased my meat consumption and trying blending nutrient dense foods. Lost 3lbs coming back from vacation. For the trip I packed a 6 pack of V-8 juice, and several CLIF bars. When eating out I opted for veggie options if available. Otherwise, I’d pick the veggies off of dishes. Managed to find a Blenders shop in Goleta and asked them to modify their green juice menuitem to a shake, which included some fruit.
