I keep getting questions about Zone Diet Recipes and I’m going to make everyone angry when I say: “Dig into your pocket, (you cheap skate), and drag out enough chump change to just buy ONE of Dr Barry Sears’ Zone Diet Books!”
This morning I woke up and had NO plan for breakfast, (actually I never do). Anyway, we had cottage cheese in the fridge and a whole pile of blueberries, (fresh – from Chili, I think), I bought the other day. So….
Like a “good” zone diet follower, I looked into the appendixes in the back of one of Dr. Barry Sears’ Zone Diet Books – and guess what?
I looked up how much cottage cheese it takes to make 2 protein “blocks” and then I looked up how many blueberries it takes to make 2 carbohydrate blocks…
Then I grabbed some low carb bread, (not too awfully tasty), we had laying on the counter and smeared All Natural Peanut Butter on 2 toasted slices, (about 2 more blocks of protein and carbohydrates), then WHAMMO!!!
I had a cheap, easy, fairly good tasting – zone meal that I can add to my pea-brain list of Zone Diet Recipes. It’s elementary my dear Watson! You just click on the link below – go to Amazon and BUY a Zone Diet Book – for a measly little bit of chump change and get in the “Zone”!
OK – Now sing along with me, (to the tune of “A Country Boy Can Survive”) 
I can navigate all day long…
I can load the ship from dusk till dawn…
Because the 1st Mate can survive – yeah…
The FIRST MATE WILL survive!
Geez – I can get you guys to do anything, can’t I? (am I slapping together a blog post here or what?)
Anyway, like I said at the beginning of this ridiculous blog post; Just buy ONE (any one), of Dr Sears’ Zone Diet Books and you’ll find recipes in it along with charts that will show you how many blocks are in MOST foods you will ever eat.
With the appendixes I’ve just told you about you will have NO problem what-so-ever… putting together enough menus and meals to get into the “Zone” and stay there.
Your health and well being depends on YOU keeping your insulin levels in a tight “zone” – not too high and not too low. Don’t make up excuses! If you’re not going to make an effort to stay in the zone then just admit it to yourself and go to carbohydrate hell!
At 57 years old, old, old… – I’m 5’11” tall and I weigh 180 lbs soaking wet. I can get in the ring ALL DAY LONG with the young amateur boxers down at the gym – (not so certain I’ll always be able to get “out” of the ring on my own two feet) – but anyway…
If you have ever intended to be as handsome and as physically fit as I am – you’d better buy yourself one of Dr. Sears’ Zone Diet Books and get with it!
Quit putting off getting healthy till you find a site with just the right Zone Diet Recipes.
Quit acting like you’re just under too much pressure to find the time to read even one of Dr Sears’ Zone Diet Books. Quit procrastinating, period.
If you want to procrastinate – procrastinate about waxing your car, or painting the house, or a hundred other things.
Don’t procrastinate about getting in the Zone and being as healthy as you can be or you’ll pay for it down the road!
Now leave me alone… I’m tired!

by Doug on January 15, 2011
There’s more to the function of Glucagon and Insulin than just the regulation of blood glucose. For one thing; Exaggerated insulin levels will keep the cells from producing the hormones called Anti-Inflammatory Eicosanoids and at that point we leave ourselves open to Silent Inflammation… Continue reading
