Ok, so two things:
a. I had a solid workout(s) today.
kickboxing class I took
kickboxing class I instructed*
*I burn less calories when I instruct because other than the warm-up/stretching, I don’t actually do the workout with the class. I bounce around the room correcting form, demonstrating, yelling, etc.
b. My nutrition and water intake was not good today. I got busy at work and time just got away from me. Before I knew it, it was going on 2pm and I had only eaten 1 meal and had only drank a cup of coffee (decaf). Bad, yeah, I know…I did immediately down some water, but I’m still well under 80oz for the day. Definitely not enough, especially with the amount I worked out. I also ended up with only 5 meals today.
Meal 1:
1 egg + 2 egg whites, chopped zucchini, Bac’Uns (same as yesterday)
1/2 a grapefruit
1 cup coffee (decaf) + almond milk + stevia

Meal 2:
1 cup leftover Brussels’s sprouts & tofu.

Meal 3:
Zone Perfect bar. Not really my first choice as far as bars go (you’ve seen my favs – Larabars, thinkThin bars, and Quest bars), but we usually have these on hand because they are one of the few bars Ryan can eat (he’s allergic to nuts & peanuts)

Meal 4: (post-workout)
Protein shake. 1 scoop vanilla whey protein, 1/2 frozen banana, cocoa powder, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, ice.

Meal 5:
I stole one of Ryan’s Chobani’s – 2% Blood Orange. Whoa man, that stuff is good. I usually roll with plain Fage and add my own fruit, but this stuff is good for a treat. I also topped it with a little granola. I inhaled it, which is why there is no picture
Anyway, as my dad would say, tomorrow’s another day.












Tomorrow is definitely always another day. We cannot be perfect no matter how hard we try. Plus, what constitutes being “perfect” anyways??
I didn’t know you were a fitness instructor in the evenings! And congrats on the engagement. Do you ever eat poorly?
Thanks!! Ha, you should have seen my diet over the holidays – yikes! I’m doing a 10 week fitness challenge at my gym again right now, so that’s why I’ve been cleaning it up lately!
I love me some Chaboni! I am not a big zone bar fan but I love the peanut butter think thin!
