WHAT IS THE MACROS APPROACH? The go-to system for dieting has long been calorie counting, which is an easy one-step system. The belief is that to lose weight, one must reduce total daily calories (either eat less or burn more); to gain weight, one must add calories; and to maintain weight, one must keep calories constant. Unfortunately, this can be misleading. The reality is that monitoring your caloric intake can only take you so far if you are not eating the right calories. While you may be losing weight, you may not necessarily be losing true body fat. Instead, you may be only losing water weight and even muscle mass.  

Image 1: Results from Calorie Counting

Image 2: Results from Counting Macros

The first image is my own personal experience where I primarily focused on weight loss by only tracking my calories. You can see I was able to make my body “smaller” overall, but I did not have the lean muscle definition that I wanted. In image 2, my focus was on counting my macros instead of just my calories. You can see a huge difference in my results although I weigh the same in both “after” photos. This is because I was able to drop body fat and retain lean muscle mass for a tighter, leaner, more defined look. Keeping track of calories, as opposed to what makes up those calories, can be harmful to your body despite any associated weight loss with this method. It’s not about how many calories are in your food but the breakdown of those calories that ultimately impacts your body composition.  In order to make sense of this, it starts with the awareness of what you are eating. Knowing what your food is made of and using that information to eat better is the basis of the macros approach to nutrition.  

4

WHAT ARE MACROS? The caloric content of food is comprised of three basic building blocks: protein, carbs, and fat which are commonly referred to as macros (short for “macronutrients”). The practice of counting macros has been used by bodybuilders for decades and has gained recent popularity among the general public. Instead of looking at food in black and white (“bad” vs. “good”), this program provides a new way to look at food based on scientific principles that are easy to understand because we have broken down every meal with the macronutrients for every single food source. In order to understand macros, let’s begin with the universal concept of calories. A calorie is simply a unit of energy that describes how much energy a certain food provides. The energy density of each macro is measured as follows: • Dietary Protein: 4 calories/gram • Carbohydrates: 4 calories/gram • Fat: 9 calories/gram Alcohol is typically not part of the 3 daily targets, but is technically a fourth macronutrient at 7 calories/gram. Alcohol is not listed on nutrition facts labels as it is not considered essential to life. While it does not contain fat, it does have an energy value that needs to be accounted for towards the daily energy allowance*. *Unlike fats and carbs, the body cannot store alcohol so it must metabolize it right away. This means that alcohol calories will always take priority as a fuel source. While the body is metabolizing alcohol, stored fat cannot be used as a fuel source for at least 48 hours. Drinking can easily push one over calorie budget for the day without any benefit towards satisfying hunger. Knowing how many carbohydrates, fats, and proteins are in any given food allows one to know exactly how many calories, or energy, that food contains. The energy in fat, protein, and carbohydrates has a different biological influence on satiety, metabolic rate, brain activity, blood sugar, and the way our body stores fat. It’s not necessarily how many calories one is consuming but the composition of those calories. It is easy to fall into nutrient deficiencies when only calories are being tracked.

5

This can lead to burn out, fatigue, and ultimately binge eating. Calories from nutrientdense food versus nutritionally poor food (for example, processed or refined carbs) will have different effects on the body. If only keeping the energy content of food in mind, it's easy to forget about the nutrient quality. Yes, a handful of nuts may be energy dense, but the nutritional benefits outweigh the number of calories. Healthy, nutrient-dense food keeps hunger at bay, helps maintain stable blood glucose levels, reduces cravings, and allows the brain to signal to your stomach that it's full. Nutrient-poor food will have the opposite effect causing hormonal dysfunction, spiking insulin levels, increasing cravings, suppressing satiety signals and encouraging overeating. The macros approach is a mindset shift to look at food for its nutritional QUALITY in addition to its energy content. Counting macros means that the number of grams of protein, carbohydrates, and fats consumed in a day are tracked. Bodybuilders and fitness competitors have mastered this art; however, for the general public, it means buying a food scale, taking the time to measure and calculate meals, and last but not least, the mental capacity to carry this out in the real world. While this may seem overwhelming at first, this is the most strategic, methodical, and scientifically sound approach to long-term sustainable health. This program provides menus that are intended to be food prepped for a few days at a time with tons of variety to keep it fun. If you have a day where you are not able to food prep, you can simply track your macros on an app and utilized a concept called flexible dieting. This is where you can choose foods not on your meal plan but can have them as long as you stay within your macronutrient goals for the day.

W H AT I S T H E B U D G E T SHRE D ? The 6 Week Shred Budget program is a streamlined version of the 6 Week Shred do-ityourself meal plan group challenge designed to support an increased rate of fat loss. This meal plan is a one size fits MOST approach to dropping body fat that may require adjustments for some.* In order to shred on a budget, several factors were taken into consideration to support minimized grocery costs. These budget menus have been written with the lowest cost ingredients that will most effectively help you reach these macronutrient goals. It is recommended that you follow one menu for 1, 2, or 4 days worth of meals. For this reason, a detailed grocery list is provided which breaks down the consolidated quantities needed of each ingredient. If you only wish to meal plan for one day at a time, shop for the quantities under the column marked “1.” If you wish to meal plan for 2 days worth of meals, shop for the quantities under the column marked “2”, and so on. You are welcome to implement flexible dieting during this phase if you do not wish to use these menus. This means that you will follow the daily macronutrient goals as outlined below and track everything you eat in a day. This plan is broken down into 3 phases: *See notes on how to adjust this meal plan

PH AS E 1: M E N U S 1 T O 4

Phase 1 lasts from days 1 to 14. During this time, you are provided with a total of 4 menus to follow over the course of 2 weeks. You are to eat every 2-3 hours or as fitting to your schedule. Make sure to consume your post-workout shake within 30 minutes of weight training. If you do not weight train, you are to skip the post-workout protein shake. Follow the macronutrients outlined below: Macronutrient Ratios: Protein: 34.8% Fat: 31.8% Carbs: 33.4%

Detailed Calories & Macros: Calories: 1555 Protein: 135 g Fat: 55 g Carbs: 130 g

PH AS E 2: M E N U S 5 T O 8

Phase 2 lasts from days 15 to 28. During this time, you are provided with a total of 4 menus to follow over the course of 2 weeks. It is recommended to implement a 16:8 intermittent fast 2 days a week during phase 2. This means that you are to eat your meals within an 8 hour time frame allowing your body to fast for 16 hours. You are only to do this 2 days of the week on the days that are most convenient for your schedule. For example, if you start eating at noon, you stop at 8pm and eat all of your meals in that 8 hour time frame. Make sure to consume your post-workout shake within 30 minutes of weight training. If you do not weight train, you may opt to skip or consume the post-workout protein shake. Follow the macronutrients outlined below: Macronutrient Ratios: Protein: 36.8% Fat: 27.6% Carbs: 35.6%

Detailed Calories & Macros: Calories: 1465 Protein: 135 g Fat: 45 g Carbs: 130 g

Phase 3 lasts from days 29 to 42. During this time, you are provided with a total of 4 menus to follow over the course of 2 weeks. It is recommended to follow a 16:8 intermittent fast every day during phase 3. This means that you are to fast for 16 hours and only eat the meals in an 8 hour time frame. For example, if you start eating at 10am you are done eating by 6pm, if you start eating at 11am you are done eating by 7pm, etc. On days you do not workout, you are STILL to consume the protein shake.

GROCERY SHOPPING ON A BUDGET PROTEIN This macronutrient is the most expensive grocery item. In contrast to other GGT programs, we have intentionally lowered the protein content to what we consider to be the minimum essential level to support fat loss while maintaining and growing muscle. While higher levels of protein can be beneficial, the increase in cost can make it impractical to implement for those on a budget. For this reason, a limited number of protein sources have been selected for this protocol based on their average national price per pound. You are welcome to include higher end sources of protein such as seafood and premium cuts of beef if you wish and as your budget allows.

The following proteins are included in this meal plan: Vegan Protein Powder Lentils Tofu Nutritional Yeast Canned Black Beans Shelled Edamame Quinoa

17

CARBS Out of all the macronutrients, carbs are the cheapest to source. However, one needs to be strategic as the prices can add up quickly. Follow these tips when purchasing carbs: • Purchase starchy carbs in bulk from economy grocery chains or wholesale stores • Select fruit and veggies frozen at peak ripeness instead of fresh ingredients. Not only will they have a longer shelf life but you will save a minimum of 50% off in comparison to fresh produce. • Opt for store brand as opposed to name brand products. The quality is the same as almost all national brands allow their goods to be private labeled and sold at a lower price. This applies to stock items like soy sauce, oats, etc. • Don’t purchase pre-packaged greens; shred your own carrots, cabbage, lettuce, etc.

The following carbs are included in this plan: Apples Romaine Lettuce

Peas Tomatoes

Crimini Mushrooms Canned Garbanzo Beans

Bell Peppers White Mushrooms

Asparagus Carrots

Butternut Squash Pomegranate Seeds

Broccoli Strawberries

Rolled Oats Collard Greens

Blueberries Onions

Bananas Spinach

Cauliflower Lemons

Garlic Kale

Cucumbers Zucchini

Whole Wheat Tortillas Brussels Sprouts

Sweet Potatoes

Jalapeno Peppers Oranges

Red Potatoes Salsa

Brown Rice

Gluten Free Bread

FATS Due to the nature of this meal plan, fat is a smaller portion of the total daily foods intake. For this reason, most of the fats will either be coming from a protein source (i.e. the fat content in ground meat) or as an oil used in food preparation. Since this is a relatively low fat meal plan, there will not be a need to restock fats on a regular basis. Stocking a bottle of store brand olive oil and a store brand olive oil spray will be sufficient to support your grocery needs.

This meal plan calls for the following fat sources: Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Peanuts

Almonds Unsweetened Almond Milk Chia Seeds Avocados Olives Peanut Butter

Recommended Stock Pantry Items for this program: Due to the frequency of use, the following non-perishable items are suggested to keep in stock throughout the duration of this program: Coffee Tea Extra Virgin Olive Oil Vinegar Soy Sauce Hot Sauce of your choice Herbal Seasonings and Spices Liquid Aminos Vanilla Extract

19

WHEN TO ADJUST THIS MEAL PLAN This program is intended to be followed as written to support women who have approximately 25 lbs or less to lose or to jump-start a longer-term fat loss journey. Best results will be achieved if this program is paired with a body type-training plan with a minimum workout frequency of 4 times a week. Training more frequently than 4 times a week can help accelerate your rate of progress but is NOT necessary to see results. It should be noted that 80 to 90% of one’s progress will be the result of dialed in nutrition. If you have never experienced targeted fat loss before, know that it’s not about working out harder, it’s about managing an energy balance of food intake and energy burned. If you are properly managing your food intake using the protocols in this meal plan, excessive exercise is not required. It should be noted that, while this is a one size fits most protocol, there are a few circumstances where this protocol can be easily customized to support your personal needs. If you are unsure and have a unique set of health conditions, it is advised to purchase a oneon-one consultation for personalized advice. These are general guidelines for making changes to your program and may vary your rate of progress. Any circumstances outside of these outlined cases should be handled via consultation.

1

High Activity Levels

If you are a highly active individual where your training sessions (weight training + cardio) are longer than 1:30 minutes and your training frequency is more than 5 times a week, you may need to increase your calories. Use these guidelines for adjusting your macros: 30 minutes additional activity: If you train an additional 30 minutes of cardiovascular activity above and beyond 1:30 minutes of weight training plus cardio, you are to take the total number of calories burned in 30 minutes and divide it by 4. This value will yield the total number of ADDITIONAL grams of carbohydrates you can consume in a day. If you are not sure how many calories you are burning in 30 minutes, use this guideline: Light Activity (walking) – 100 calories: Consume an extra ~25 g of carbs per day (to be consumed post-workout). Moderate Activity (jogging) – 250 calories: Consume ~60 g of carbs per day with at least 25-30 g of those carbs consumed post-workout. Intense Activity (running, HIIT, sprints, etc.) – 450 calories: Consume ~110 g of carbs per day with at least 25-30 g of those carbs consumed post-workout.

20

2

BMR Variances

If you have a small frame and are ~5’2” or shorter, your basal metabolic rate may be too low for this program and this may be too much food for your needs. This program is optimal for those with a BMR between 1400 and 1700 looking to shred body fat. You can calculate your BMR with an online calculator. If your BMR is outside of this range, the following adjustments are advised: If your BMR is greater than 1900 calories, this program may be too aggressive for your needs. This will support a jump start towards your progress and you will need to revert back to a higher calorie protocol after this plan if you choose to follow it. However you can multiple the macros by a factor of 1.20 for a better fit. If your BMR is between: ‣ 1800 to 1900 cal – Multiply macros by a factor of 1.15. * ‣ 1700 to 1800 cal – Multiply macros by a factor of 1.05.* ‣ 1400 to 1700 cal – Follow the program as written and make zero adjustments. ‣ 1300 to 1400 cal – Multiply macros by a factor of 0.95 to get your new macros.** ‣ 1200 to1300 cal – Multiply macros by a factor of 0.85 to get your new macros. ** ‣ 1100 to1200 cal – Multiply macros by a factor of 0.80 to get your new macros. ** * Please note that this will increase your calories from the recommended calories in this program. You do not HAVE TO make this change. Opting to NOT make this change will result in a faster rate of progress during this program. ** Please note that this will reduce your calories from the recommended calories in this program. You do not HAVE TO make this change; however, it will support a faster rate of progress.

What to do when this program is over When this program ends, it is advised to revert back to phase 2 macros for one week, phase 1 macros the next week, and then increase your macros until you reach your maintenance level of macros. If you have > 10-15 lbs to lose, it is okay to do shreds back to back. It is advised to follow phase 2 macros between shreds. If you have specific goals or special circumstances, it is advised to purchase a consultation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

22

Read this portion before starting the program. DO NOT start this program before reading in full. How does it work? 1) This is your program; however, we kindly ask that this program is not shared or emailed with persons or parties who did not purchase the meal plan. The macronutrient ratios, calorie levels, and the rate of change of the macros disclosed in this program are the intellectual property of Gauge Girl Training, LLC. Disclosure of this information is strictly prohibited in any online forum, video, email, social media post, or any other form of disclosure. Failure to comply will result in legal action. 2) Take your before photos wearing a bathing suit from the front, side, and back views. You must hold the Day 1 sign in your before photos and the Day 42 sign in your after photos. If you do not own a bathing suit, a sports bra and booty shorts are acceptable. You must be wearing the same EXACT outfit as the before photos to be eligible for the challenge grand prize. 3) To be eligible for the challenge prizes, you must be holding the official Gauge Girl Training signs. 4) It is recommended to have a friend, significant other, or family member take these photos of you. Cell phone selfies are not ideal. Use proper lighting and stand in front of a closed door frame. It is suggested to not take your photos with a cluttered background. We need to be able to see your physique (not the inside of your house and all your personal belongings). 5) Enter your “before” measurements and weight in the progress tracking chart. Before photos are to be posted on a public Gauge Girl instagram account to be eligible for the grand prize. If you want your identity to remain anonymous, you can simply crop your head from the photos and just show from the neck down. Any accounts that are not public when the photos are posted will be disqualified from the challenge prize. If you do not wish to participate in the challenge, you are welcome to follow this program at your own rate. 6) For a total of 42 days you are to follow the recommended meal plan. You will receive FREE access to the Private Team Gauge Girl Facebook Forum to interact with others participating in the same challenge. Clients that are the most engaged in our community tend to have the most success. This is not a customized meal plan and does not come with online support from our staff of certified GGT nutritionists. If you feel you have questions or need clarifications along the way, it is highly recommended that you utilize our forum with qualified moderators and experienced clients who have participated in this program before to lean on for support. Due to the volume of clients, we are unable to offer free advice via email or text; however, we created this forum to help you along the way.  If you do not have a Facebook account, it is recommended that you create one to gain access to our community during your time on this program.

23

7) This program is a meal plan only. It is recommended that you pair this meal plan with one of the Do It Yourself Body Type Training programs to account for your specific body type through your physical training. Most clients purchase both the home and gym version of the training programs in case they ever need to get a few workouts in at home. Your results will be 80-90% based on your nutrition and your discipline to follow this program.

Unsure of your body type? Send your photos to [email protected] for help!

8) Follow the program for 42 days and use our tracking chart included in this program for your weekly measurements and photos. You are only required to take Day 1 and Day 42 pictures; however, you are welcome to share your journey along the way and take additional weekly photos for yourself and for sharing with our amazing online community. 9) Print the tracking chart (twice so you have space for the full 42 days) and record your measurements each week. How do I tackle the meal prep? Unlike other meal plans on the market, this program not only includes a detailed meal plan but also features our MEAL PREP METHOD section. We are giving you extra tips on how to put the meals together, related to the meal prep methods, and ideas for optional “add-ins” to the meals. We show you what meals travel well and give you the line by line macro breakdown for ease of substitutions for each ingredient. Start by going through the daily menus and select which menus you will be following. You are not required to follow each menu for each day; however, we encourage it for those of you that enjoy cooking and welcome variety into your meals. While this program was written to provide ideas so you don't get bored with your food, cooking a new menu every day can be challenging for some with busy schedules. So it is recommended that you select at least 2 menus per week that you really like and prep the foods for a few days at a time using the grocery lists. You are welcome to select any menu within the phase you are following.

24

Print the grocery list to determine how much you will need of each item on the meal plan. Once you figure out your grocery needs, it is suggested to purchase the following items: ‣ ‣ ‣ ‣ ‣

Can I drink alcohol during this program? There is a 100% strict no alcohol policy while on this program. This is a focused and targeted 42-day plan that delivers real results. Alcohol provides no nutritional value and tends to derail the majority of clients from their goals. One drink turns into several very quickly. Once you have reached your physique goal, Gauge Girl Training can create a customized maintenance program for you that includes organic red wine. However, for this program, alcohol is a no-go. Can I have tea & coffee during this program? Yes, both are encouraged. Coffee must be black without added cream, sugar, or flavor additives. If you are new to black coffee, it is recommended to freshly grind whole coffee beans and use a French press for a cleaner, higher quality cup of coffee. Economical, yet high quality coffee can be found at Trader Joes. It is suggested to dilute your coffee with an equivalent portion of hot or cold water if you use creamer as a diluent. Acceptable sweeteners include monk fruit or stevia. Can I have cheat meals during this program? No. Cheat meals are not allowed for this 42 day program. Is it okay to eat late at night? Yes, the time of day does not matter. I have personally been on numerous shreds where my last meal ended up being after 11pm due to time constraints. This will not impact your progress. What if I workout at a different time of the day? This meal plan shows the post-workout meal as the first meal of the day. If you weight train at a different time of the day, you are to move this meal accordingly. If I don’t weight train, should I still take the post-workout meal? • During days 1-14, if you do not weight train, you are to skip the post-workout meal. • During days 15-28, if you do not weight train, you have the option to keep the post-workout meal as needed to support recovery at the lower caloric ranges. • During days 29-42, if you do not weight train, you are still to consume the post-workout meal.

S ER VINGS : 2 | PREP TIME: 5 MIN | COOK TI M E : ~2 M I N This dish looks like a ton of food, but don’t be deceived because one serving is only 9 grams of net carbs. Once I learned that I could enjoy approximately 4 times the volume of “rice” with less carbs and amazing flavor, I was ready to sign up ASAP. This is tasty, spicy, and includes garlic. Need I say more? IN G R E DI E N T S : ½ Tbsp Kasandrinos Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 Diced Raw Jalapeño (seeds removed) 1 Diced Raw Medium Head of Cauliflower (5-6” diameter/~500 g/~4 c)

2 Chopped Garlic Cloves ¼ c Vegetable Stock 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce* ¼ tsp Paprika

*May Opt To Use Coconut Aminos for a Soy Free Alternative. IN S T RUCT I O NS : 1. Remove stem from cauliflower. Cut cauliflower in half and then into quarters through the core. Remove core from each “quarter” with a knife allowing cauliflower to naturally fall apart into large florets. 2. Dice florets into “rice-like” pieces with a large knife. Alternatively, “rice” cauliflower using a food processor. Do not fill more than ¾ full. If necessary, process in batches with 1-second pulses until it has broken down into granules. Set aside. 3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. 4. Sauté garlic for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. 5. Add cauliflower, jalapeño, vegetable stock, soy sauce, and paprika. Stir-fry together until all ingredients are equally distributed for 30-90 seconds or until desired doneness. Serve immediately.

MEAL T I P S : 1. Allow contents to cool at room temperature for 10 minutes before refrigerating. Dish will keep for 4-5 days refrigerated.   2. This is an excellent alternative to grains such as rice when you are mentally craving more volume on your plate. 3. The recipe is family friendly and easy to prepare in bulk for a week of meals.

HOW TO USE THIS SUBSTITUTION GUIDE When following a macros based approach to nutrition, it is crucial that one begins to look at food through the lens of proteins, carbs, and fats. These meal plans were formulated with recipes and meals to fit the macronutrient goals for each day. There may be times when you may wish to deviate from these meal plans for variety, cost, convenience, or a certain food not being available or in season in your area. As long as you fit your total daily macronutrient goals at the end of the day, it does not matter how you go about reaching them and what combination of foods you consume to get there. This substitution guide was created to show you macros-based alternatives for proteins, carbs, and fats. We have included a detailed database of foods with their calories, protein, carbs and fats broken down per ounce (or 30 g) serving. If you want to substitute a given food in a meal, these meal plans have been broken down showcasing the macros for every line item making it very easy to see what macros each ingredient contributes to a meal. For example, this meal consists of 4 ingredients: Qty Unit Description

Lets say you wanted to substitute the Whole Wheat Flour Tortilla. The first thing you want to do is look at the primary macronutrient. In this case it contains 22 g of carbs, 3 g of fat, and 4 g of protein. If the amounts of fats and protein and less than 5 grams they can be considered zero for the sake of simplicity in making a substitution. When looking at this whole-wheat flour tortilla we have 22 g of carbs to substitute. Take a look at the substitution chart and scroll across the first top row to the right where you will see carb equivalents broken down by 5 g, 10 g, 15 g, 20 g, 25 g, etc. Wt

In our case we have 22 g of carbs to substitute, we will round this down to 20 g of carbs. If the value was greater than 22.5 g we would round up to 25 g. This means that we will look at the column listed “20 g” and scroll down that column. As you scroll down this chart tells you the equivalent weight in ounces of other foods that will yield the same amount of carbohydrates. This is not always a 100% on the dot exact substitution but if it is within 10% variance for carbs and proteins, and 5% for fats this is an acceptable substitute.
