21 Day Fix Paleo: Day 5
This morning was rough, mentally. I was definitely questioning my decision and life choices... And then I talked to a friend, made some plans, and I was back in the game, better than ever.
Breakfast:
Vegan Chocolate Shakeology, 8 oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk, unsweetened coconut flakes, ice. Mixed berries with drizzled honey.
1 Red, 1 Yellow, 1 Orange, 1 Purple.
Snack:
Coffee and coconut oil. Carrots.
1 tsp, 1 Green
Lunch:
2 egg omelet with hot sauce and 1/2 avocado. Steamed broccoli and carrots with coconut oil and sea salt.
1 Red, 1 Blue, 1 Red, 1 tsp
Snack:
Apple, banana
2 Purple
Dinner:
Grassfed beef, lightly seasoned. Sweet potato. Green beans with coconut oil and sea salt.
1 Red, 1 Yellow, 1 Green, 1 tsp
Snack:
Chilled coffee and Chocolate Vegan Shakeology
1 Red
I ended up with an extra Purple and an extra tsp today. The almond milk yellow isn't a perfect match, since it isn't solid food, so it makes sense that I'd need an extra little something. I carefully thought about and added the banana to my plan, since my stomach was literally hurting and I needed a bit of sugar and carbs.
Just a reminder to please listen to your body! Cutting calories and exercising hard WILL work, but only if you're smart about it, right?
Workout:
Today was Cardio Fix. No weights, just cardio. Holy cow, it's intense! I pushed myself hard and felt wiped out and great when it was over. Burpees, mountain climbers, back lunges... it was definitely all the right things!
I can't believe I've almost made it through the first week! Tomorrow I will meal plan for the upcoming week AND do my best to plan for my short trip out of town Monday and Tuesday. I have no idea right now what I will do about it, but I'll figure it out tomorrow and shop for whatever snacks and take-along food I can.
Hope you're enjoying following along with me! If you'd like to tackle the 21 Day Fix yourself (with or without the crazy Paleo option), please message me at fb.com/shannonambrosonCOACH or shannonambroson@gmail.com. I'd love to have you as my accountability partner! My next group is beginning JULY 6 if you're up for an online boot camp with others just as highly motivated as we are!
