The P90X diet plan has you eating a lot of protein. Most are probably eating much more than you are used to and might have a hard time adjusting to it. An omelet is an excellent source of protein that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner.Omelets are simple to make too, only requiring a few minutes in front of the stove.
Try the following omelet ingredients to get your protein in a simple delicious way.
**Start each omelet with 6 egg whites, beaten and poured into a pan on medium heat. Once the eggs start to set up add any of the following combinations before folding the omelet.**
Western Omelet
3 oz fat free ham
Green peppers (1/8 C. cooked)
Mushrooms (1/8 C. cooked)
Top with 1 oz low fat cheese

3 oz boneless skinless chicken breast
Green peppers (1/8 C. cooked)

Keep in mind the small amounts of veggies in each omelet equal about ½ serving in most circumstances. If you are eating for your evening meal you can double the eggs for 2 protein servings.
Hi there. I need some help! I am 30 years old, 5′1″, size 4-6, and 126 lbs. I want to be a size 2-4 and 115 lbs. I am in week 2, day 3 of P90x. I am using the portion approach, but also using the meal plan approach for recipe ideas. Here’s my question: Do I have to follow the nutrition guide EXACTLY to get the results that I want? I know a lot of research and time has been spent putting that together. So, if the food item is NOT on the list, I may not have it?? For example, can I have tea? Can I have Crystal Light? Can I have another fruit during the day at snack time even if I have had my full fruit serving at breakfast? That seems reasonable, but also know that you all put 1 fruit on there for a reason. I am really trying hard not to justify my wants no matter how reasonalbe they seem. I know the only person I am cheating is myself, but is there room for common sense in the plan? For example, too, in my mushroom omelet, I put spinach leaves in although it did not call for it. That’s OK, right? I am eating WAY less than I am used to and I am feeling hungry at times during the day. I am not giving into it…yet! One more thing…Is there another place for P90x level 1, phase 1 recipes? So looking forward to hearing from you soon. Take it easy and thanks.
