What I Ate Wednesday and a Leg Workout!

First for What I Ate Wednesday…. I have been doing protein powder with almond milk and coffee pre workout pretty much every day. Post workout I do a quick shake with protein powder, almond milk, almond flour and 1/2 banana. My actual breakfast for the next few weeks will be egg whites, yams and avocado. Mid morning has been a protein pancake but that will have to go soon too Lunch is steak with yams, veggies and avocado. Afternoon has been tuna and veggies (no pic) and dinner will probably be fish or egg whites. I have been wanting to barf at the thought of chicken lately so it’s out for a while. AND – So excited when I was looking through old pics...

What I Ate Wednesday – Soooo Boring!

My eats are going to be so boring until Vegas and then fun for a few weeks and then boring again until the wedding. Oh well it’s worth it.   Breakfast was protein pancakes that I ate in a baggie on my way to work in the car – no pic obviously. M2: Stuffed chicken, sweet potatoes, avocado and veggies M3: Steak, sweet potatoes and veggies M4: Chicken, avocado and veggies M5: Egg whites with veggies (not pictured yet because I haven’t had it yet) M6: Protein shake with water I found the cookies and cupcakes before my night class when I was eating M4 -> I wanted one so badly but instead I ate my chicken and went upstairs. I had more starchy...

Peanut Butter Banana Protein Bars and WIAW

So this week has been good with eats. Super appropriate for a WIAW (What I Ate Wednesday) I made my clean turkey chili for lunches for me and then made some peanut butter banana protein bars for breakfast/snacks. They are a variation of my normal oatmeal bakes and were a little crumbly but completely delicious. This recipe was cut into 12 bars and I’ve been eating 1 or 1 and 1/2 for breakfast. Ingredients: 6 scoops vanilla protein powder (or chocolate) 3 ripe bananas 6 tbsp of peanut butter 2 cups old fashioned oats 1 cup almond milk lots of cinnamon (because I love it) Standard warning!! I do not like sweetener so I don’t bake with it. If you normally...

WIAW – it’s baaaaack!

Yay!! So glad I am back with WIAW now that I am doing my own thing again. I have a TON of eats to share with you guys – some from our vaca so I’m excited about it.   I will be honest – we did not eat clean the entire time we were in Texas (or green). I mean come on we HAD to have some Texas bar-b-que. Biggest sandwich ever! I had a few bites and let the Fatkid have the rest – and my stomach was not happy about it – wheat + fatty foods = not good. But it tasted yummy and I probably won’t do it again until we go back Our second night there we had a little date night because it was 2 hours earlier for us and everyone was in bed....

WIAW #8

WIAW #8 is going to be short and sweet. I had these new blueberry protein pancakes for breakfast BUT I can’t share the recipe yet because they aren’t quite right yet :/ sorry. Then for the rest of the day was pretty standard: Greek yogurt with flaxseed and grapefruit Tuna and chicken with veggies, avocado and white sweet potato Chicken enchilada Post workout shake (not pictured) Eggs white and one egg with cut veggies We got the most delicious home grown grapefruit from one of the Fatkid’s clients and I have been loving them! Today was Day 51 in the trainer and I keep getting more and more anxious for Phase 3 which starts next week. Also, I did a...
