Day two...early to bed, early to rise..

Normally my motto on a daily basis, but not today. I was hitting the snooze button before my alarm had a chance to even sound off at 5am. Don't judge me for it is my "saturday." Asleep by 12:00am and up by 10:30am..bring on my first day off of two!! Gym time, legs and abs baby. Its go time.

Breakfast: 4 egg omelet, 1 tsp olive oil, with 2 spears of asparagus, handful of yellow bell peppers, and 1/8  cup of pico de gallo. 1/4 cup of blueberries. Perfect source of energy for my workout. Not too full and not still hungry. I am surprised with how energized I actually feel, and its ONLY day two. Positive energy seems to be pulsing through every vein in my body and I love it!

Post workout meal: 6 oz grilled plain chicken breast, 1/2 of a fresh avocado. So used to my protein shakes after working out so this is taking time to get used to. Think I may need to start carrying a cooler of chicken or boiled eggs in my car on days I need to run errands afterwards. Got to beat that 30 minute window!

Snack: 1 granny smith apple and a handful of almonds.

Lunch: 10 51/60 count shrimp, red leaf lettuce, handful of yellow bell peppers, 6 grape tomatoes, cilantro, 6 blackberries, and 4 baby carrots tossed in 1 tbsp of olive oil and fresh lemon. Think next time, I'll saute the shrimp up with a little olive oil, fresh garlic, and oregano.


Snack: 2oz shredded pork tenderloin, scoop of pico de gallo.

Snack: 1/4 cup of blackberries, handful of macadamia nuts. My head is going to fall off. Im a bottomless pit. Think I need to add a lot more veggies to my mix..

Dinner: 6 oz grilled chicken breast, 1/4 cup cabbage, cilantro, red onion slaw tossed in lemon juice, 1 strawberry, handful of cauliflower, and 1/3 cup spaghetti squash with olive oil and pepper. Forgot how much I LOVE spaghetti squash. Just the veggie I needed..cant wait to snack on it tomorrow.

Snack:  2oz shredded pork tenderloin. 1/4 cup strawberries.

Made the mistake of going to the grocery store earlier today, without eating a snack before hand. BIG mistake. Not only did I want to stick every gluten free cracker, cereal bar, and box of brown rice in my mouth with a big cup of hot sauce to wash it down. I found myself getting irritable until I ripped open a bag of macadamia nuts and a box of blackberries in the middle of the store and started going to town. Classy. Wont do that again. Live and learn! Im excited for tomorrow. With every day comes repetition, strength, and empowerment. I can do this.
