In brief. 3 types of meals:
1. Fire: burns fat and detoxifies.
Consists of lean protein (1/2 plate) and veggies (1/2 plate).
2. Fuel: builds muscle and performance (speeds metabolism)
Consists of 1/3 lean protein, 1/3 veggies and 1/3 high octane carbs (e.g. Fruit, brown rice).
3. Free: any food you desire.
The goal is to have 3 days of Fire meals followed by 1 day of Fuel meals, then back to 3 days of Fire and so on. Each week, allow yourself 3 Free meals (not binges, a portion of something you enjoy and that's it), any day that you choose - this means I can have any type of dinner I want, say on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Fruit is also no longer a forbidden item. I always had an issue with fruit not being allowed on the 4HB.
This makes a lot more sense to me, so let me mull over it and we'll see what tomorrow brings.
