Diet and supplements

Diet. Yeah, I know it always makes me sad too. Right now my diet is the same every day. Why? Because it makes my life easier. I eat 3 meals with chicken, a good carb like squash or brown rice and a green veggie like broccoli or asparagus. I also eat 2 snacks that contain nuts or PB2, an apple and a protein drink. I try to eat every three hours to keep my metabolism going.

I also try to keep all my meals with me when I'm out running errands or else I get hungry and want to cheat. It always sounds so much better to drive through and get something fast and easy as opposed to running home and cooking so I carry this awesome cooler that I stole from my husband. I like it because I can fit everything I need for my day in it. I always carry an apple, nuts, protein powder and at least 1 meal.  Today after the gym I did realize that I forgot to bring plain water to make my protein so I used my blue Razz BCAA's that I have in my water jug. It was amazing, I might have to start doing this from now on. It was so yummy!

I also bring my water bottle with me everywhere. It has 2 scoops of alpha aminos in it right now and since I brought it to the gym it's already half empty. I try to drink 2 of these a day. The second one is just plain water though. I do take fat burners because I feel like they give me energy and help me make it through my day and working nights. I love Cellucor's products and that's all I have at the moment. I have used other ones in the past and I feel like it is something you have to play around with and see what works for you. Each person reacts differently to supplements so you just have to try them and figure out what you like.

 

Right now my husband and I meal prep about 2 or 3 times a week for about an hour or two. It just depends on our schedules and where we can fit it in. I like prepping multiple times because otherwise I feel like my food isn't fresh and starts to go bad. Here soon I'll do a post on how and what we prep, and what we have found to work for us.
