Back from a week out of town! worked out everyday I was gone in the hotel gym. brought bands and my gymboss with me and managed to get all my lifting days in and one long cardio recovery day. glad to be back with all my own gym tools today for a bicep tricep workout later this afternoon!!

managed to stay plant based pretty much the whole trip as well. Only things I had that i would not have at home were an ahi tuna salad and one night at a pizza place i got a veggie pizza with very little cheese. other than that our hotel had a kitchenette so i found the nearest trader joes and a health food store and stocked up for the week so it worked out good and I didnt have the stomach issues that some of the rest of my family had from eating a lot of junk.

I need to get a new training journal because I filled up my last one so I have not been journaling last week while working out!!

BUT i did workout my normal schedule and felt great. I got a few extra things in like some powerboxing and an extra day of easy cardio on sunday only for 35 min in the morning just as sort of recovery. sometimes after a tough week of training, just an easy cardio session makes me feel better. I got a gift certificate from my husband last week for a massage so thats definitely on the much needed to do list this week and im pretty excited about that.

meals have been pretty good. some days I feel like im getting too much carbohydrates but then i think well i need them because i work out 6 days a week. ughh its just always hard to find a good balance while still getting in all the micronutrients i need. today looks like this

 

1/4 cup steel cut oats with 1 scoop garden of life raw protein and unsweetened almond milk

1 egg with broccoli and mushrooms

ginger tea

 

postworkout plantfusion shake with hemp hearts

1 green kombucha

 

homemade kale chips

whole grain noodles with black beans/corn and nutritional yeast sauce

spinach salad with bean sprouts, sunflower sprouts,broccoli,sesame seeds,red cabbage, homemade mustard vinaigrette

1/4 cup kimchee

 

wildwood probiotic soy yogurt with healthforce nutritionals protein

1 coco lite cake with blue gree algae nut butter

 

cauliflower mac and cheese with gardein chicken tenders

large kale salad with same veggies as lunch

cynthias avocado dressing

 

1 scoop protein in water as a pudding with 2 tbsp PB2

Have not posted in awhile but still training hard 5 days a week with the 6th day being easy cardio recovery day.

enjoying the benefits of a plant based diet and have switched over the last few months to a mostly raw diet. very rarely eating any cooked foods. my body is reacting well and i dropped 5lbs and feel leaner and tighter in areas that i had previously struggled with. funny thing is i eat more fruit than i ever did before because i was so concerned with sugars. i have found that everyones body reacts differently to things but this is working for me. I have increased in my lifting and have good energy

trained back and shoulders today! fun!

Training is going well just finished a killer leg session. lots of plyometrics today and mini circuits of leg stuff with some core excercises sprinkled in.

box jumps,medicine ball wall tosses, 1 legged burpees,split squat jumps,speed squats,speed skater jumps were some of the things I did.

Just got back from a weekend in Tornto, had the best time! I researched a few vegan restaurants before we went and we went to 3 of them and they were all fantastic! one of them was called "fresh" I highly reccomend this if your in the area, lots of great options. My husband is an omnivore but will pretty much eat anything and he said it was the best vegan chicken sandwich he has ever had and ranks it higher than most meat based things he has ever had.

so they have really helthy options as well as vegan comfort food. something for everyone

todays meals

vega tropical smoothie with pineapple,kiwi,thai coconut water,cara cara orange,kale,unsweetened shredded coconut

carrot juice mix with garlic,celery,kale,lemon,ginger

lydias sprouted cereal with unsweetened almond milk

 

chia seed pudding with choc protein

1/2 grpefruit,a few mixed berries

 

giant mix greens salad

red cabbage,tomato,cucumber,celery,mushroom,rainbow slaw,broccoli,yellow pepper,fresh dill,jicama,dulse,raw sunflower seeds,savi seeds,carrots

lentil soup with garbanzo beans

 

vega one bar

multi green kombucha

green apple

 

giant salad like the one from lunch

i made a mixture with thai coconut meat,raw cauliflower,curry powder,mustard all in food processor and then added some chopped peppers,green onions and wrap it in a collard leaf with some sprouts so its like a curry coconut wrap
