What does a triathlete’s diet look like? Keryn at ChickFit visits “tri-nutritionist” Niki and discovers a meal plan created to promote slow, steady weight loss through portion control and smart food choices. Although “Niki doesn’t normally put her clients on meal plans because most people will follow plans without learning about how to eat correctly,” she’s started Keryn on a “food group type plan” with a calorie goal of 1,600. Here’s the breakdown:

-Milk - 2 servings at about 90 calories each

-Veggies - 2-4 servings at about 25 calories each

-Fruit - 3 servings at about 60 calories each

-Bread/Starch - 6 servings at about 80 calories each

-Meat/Protein - 4 servings at about 50-100 calories each

-Fat - 5 servings at about 45 calories each
