So, my last post on this topic was about Five Guys, and while I still love The Five, there is a new love in my life – Chipotle. The love of my life – Tillie, my fiancé was the one who turned me on to the no rice, no beans bowl and Chipotle. Its super yummy, super easy (no work involved – I only have to pay for it!), and doesn’t have any fattening (or fatigue inducing) starchy carbs. And its soon to be even more convenient as they’re opening one right up the street from my condo!
Did you know you can place your order online before you go so that you don’t have to wait on line?
The Josef Bowl:
*Double barbacoa beef
*Guacamole
*Sour cream
*Cheese
*Medium salsa
*Lettuce
Interesting side note: I told one client about the no beans or rice bowl and she said, “but then you’ll need more food [as the rice and beans make up a lot of the bulk in the bowl].” That’s not actually true.
For folks that have a tendency to pack on extra body-fat the act of eating carbs makes you hungry (insulin makes you both tired and hungry as its busy making new body-fat). So, eliminating the starchy/refined carbs from a meal makes it energizing and satiating. You’ll be more satisfied without the beans and rice than with! (Satisfied with how your pants fit and satisfied with the amount of food you ate.)
