I just had a wonderful conversation with an old college buddy of mine, Jon Mendelsohn, and he shared his method for staying slim and trim. He’s always been a sharp guy, but I really liked his plan and I thought I’d share it with you. The “Mendelsohn Method” goes like this: Choose food that spoils. That means, Jon avoids processed foods in boxes, cans or bags which would be as good in nine months as they are now. Easy, right? Foods included in his “spoiler diet” are: raw fruits and veggies, lean meats, lean dairy and fresh whole grains. These choices are all naturally high in nutrition and low in fat.
The Mendelsohn Method doesn’t suggest you should never eat a cracker or open a can of soup, it just encourages you to make the move for “spoilers” most of the time. It clearly works for Mr. Mendelsohn. Thanks for the tip, Jon – I’m so happy we had the chance to catch up!
