Fit Food
by Jason Meuller

If there's anyone in the world who hates dieting, it's me.  Dieting for me can mean a lot of things, eating to lose fat, eating to gain muscle, or just eating to maintain.  Anyway you cut it, eating like a bodybuilder sucks most of the time.  In order to help make life a little easier on all of us, AE will be including a new recipe every week so that you can add a little variety to your life.
