Day 33

 

Meal 1 @ 7am- Shredded salsa chicken with zucchini, green peppers, kale, and green beans. Banana with almond butter and some coffee with coconut milk.

 

Pre Work Out Snack @ 9:45am- some almonds

 

Workout 10-10:45- Hot yoga class

 

Post Workout @ 10:50- Oven chicken and sweet potatoes

 

Meal 2 @ 11:30- Can of tuna with homemade mayo, 1/2 cucumber, 1/2 zucchini and grapes.

 

Snack @ 3:300 Did not have enough veggies at lunch so I had some carrot sticks, celery, orange and almond. Also had an active afternoon with asana lab sessions!

 

Pre Work Out @ 4:45pm- Hardboiled egg

 

Workout 5:30-6:30- Hot yoga class

 

Post Workout @ 6:35pm - Oven chicken and sweet potatoes.

 

Meal 3 @ 7:30pm- Was not super hungry but did not want to eat too late since it will be an early to bed night… Had three homemade meatballs, zucchini, green peppers, kale with an apple and carrots with sunflower seed butter.

 

Today was a better meal day with the workouts.. I am very sore but that is expected… However, I feel much more confident with my meal choices today compared to yesterday. Could have had a better snack but it was compliant and easy. Will def be doing lots of chicken and sweet potatoes over the next 4 weekends!

 

Tomorrow is gluten grains re-intro. Should be interesting... steel cut oats with Meal 1, bread with Meal 2, Muesli with Meal 3.. Meal 2 is with my mom at whole foods so I will be on the hunt for something compliant bread wise that does not have soy/sugar since those days come later.

Busy day… Produce delivery came today, excited since it was my first one. Working on the last few items I need from the store (spinach, have lots of kale, etc) for big cook up tomorrow and Thursday for weekend #2 of yoga teacher training and for part of the week next week. Need to get into a better routine now that I have lost my weekend cookups and am so busy during the week. I have committed to maintaining 7 hrs of sleep a night so that def comes into play since I need to be in bed by 10, which means wind down starts at 9:45… At least tonight's load of laundry is almost done washing.. Tomorrow is 2 more loads, cooking, and maybe some cleaning… The floors need a good scrub.. LOL

Day 37


 


Meal 1 @ 6:15am- some ground beef with some roasted cabbage, green beans, and spinach. Also had some coffee with coconut milk and a banana with almond butter.


 


Stopped at Starbucks at 7:15am- Dairy retintro day. Had a Grande skim milk late.


 


Meal 2 @ 11:40am- some sharp cheddar cheese (OMG SO YUM!!) with my salad jar, cauliflower, carrots, celery, and a spinach burger.


 


Meal 3 @ 5:30pm- salsa chicken with a sweet potato, roasted eggplant, and cabbage. Had some plain greek yogurt with a few berries and almonds.


 


Dairy day went well, not adverse reactions. Could tell I was a bit flemmy and had some gas bubbles moving in the belly but nothing major which is good. Hoping that the next two days go well as I would like to be able to enjoy some queso every now and then since the side affects were not bad. But not sure I want to eat it everyday.


 


Did food prep for the weekend, made some well fed mayo, made tuna salad, and prepped my post workout meals. Should help make the weekend easier and more relaxing with all day yoga teacher training.

I found that when I have a 2% latte at Starbucks I had gurgly belly, but not when I have a full fat one. Your mileage may vary but I thought I'd throw it out there. :)

 

I had actually thought about going with the whole milk but was not sure... I think that I will try it next time around. Thank you for the heads up. :) :)
