Day nineteen...STRONG is the new skinny.

My whole mentality of food and body image has changed and I am the healthiest I have ever been in a long time. I used to admire the skinny girls. Now, I aim to achieve the physique of those with muscle and definition. Strong IS the new skinny. Letting go of the number on the scale and letting it define me as a person..is liberating. I will only look back to remind myself of where I never want to be again and how far I have come. A better me and future awaits. I'm ready for it!

Breakfast: 1 cup of black coffee, 2 boiled eggs, 2 strips of bacon, handful of blackberries and blueberries.

Post workout meal: 6 oz grilled chicken breast, 1/2 cup of spaghetti squash, handful of blackberries. Today's workout was all upper body..these arms are shaking!

Lunch: 2 pan seared chicken apple sausages, sauteed yellow onions, green bell peppers, roma tomatoes, and boiled kale drizzled with fresh lemon juice and topped with sauteed minced garlic.

Snack: 1 apple, 3 oz grilled chicken, double shot of espresso.

Dinner: 6 oz grilled chicken breast, 1 cup mixed greens with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, 2 strawberries, handful of pine nuts, 1/2 avocado, handful of blackberries, 3/4 cup spaghetti squash, 1/2 cup of ground turkey marinara.

Snack: 3 oz grilled chicken breast.

I am exhausted. My back and biceps were killed this morning (love it). And after a long night at work, this girl is ready for sleep. Tomorrow, I am taking a much needed day of rest from the gym. Back to work in less than 7 hours so I am putting myself to bed. Night.
