Day 26 Whole30- meals, workout of the day, & my experience

Good morning!

Day 26 already! I am feeling great. I used to come home after a long day of graduate school stuff and eat whatever I could find. Now, when I get home after a long day I feel satisfied and usually don't eat anything after 6 or 7pm. It feels great and I feel so much better!

Pre-workout meal consisted of fresh fruit and homemade pecan butter.

Breakfast will be 2 eggs with zucchini and mushrooms.

This is what I will be having for lunch: unstuffed peppers with avocado on top.

This will be dinner: zucchini/ sweet potato noodles with chicken and green onions topped with a little Whole30 homemade mayo (just egg, olive oil, pink Himalayan salt, and dried mustard- made in a food processor- look up the recipe because you have to follow it directly for it to turn out).  

If I am still hungry I will probably have carrots with homemade nut butter or some more fruit. 

Today's workout was shared on yesterday's post: workout plan

Stay tuned.... I will post a progress photo on Day30! :D

Some people say... " but I don't have time for the Whole30" or "I don't have time to workout" or "I don't have access to a gym." Those are all excuses. If it is important to you, you will find a way! HOW TO DO THE WHOLE 30 IN COLLEGE. You can make Whole30 approved meals pretty quickly. How long do eggs take to make? Not long at all! Pair them with carrots and an avocado... boom! You have a meal you can make in about 3 minutes. You can also prep your food on weekends like me! You DO have time to workout. Do you have 30 minutes a day? You can do a killer HIIT workout in 30 minutes. You may have to get up before work and do it or do the workout when you get home from work, but you will feel so much better if you take this time for yourself. Working out is my self care! You DO NOT need access to a gym to get a good workout. I have posted many YouTube videos that do not require any equipment or gym machines. You can also use what is around you. For example, go outside and do jumps on stairs, jumping jacks, squats, lunges, sit ups, pushups, burpees. You do not need "things" to get a good workout!

Well, that is all I have! Any questions?

Later Taters!

Day 25 Whole30

Hello!

Day 23 Whole30

Good afternoon!

This morning I slept in for once and it felt great! This was breakfast: berries, a few slices of banana, homemade pecan butter, and 2 scrambled eggs.

Lunch was my unstuffed peppers!

Dinner will be zucchini noodles that I prepped Friday. 

I had a pretty killer workout this morning. I planned it last night. I must say... I am loving the HIIT style of working out the last two days. If you are trying to read this picture it may be a little confusing. I took a screen shot of the notes in my phone, so start on the left. It ends with 6 pushups so then go to the right photo and find where it says 6 pushups and pick up there! I like to try to give people workouts they can do at home with little equipment. If you don't have a bench to use for this workout, find something you can use a a step up. You could use stairs or a chair. For the bench jumps, you could use a bench in the park or get creative and think of something else to use. If you do not know what some of these moves are, refer to yesterday's post!

After my workout, I decided to soak up a little sun since it has been rainy here for over 2 weeks. Once I got to the pool the sun only stayed out for about 30 minutes. I was pretty bummed, but some sun is better than no sun at all.

The rest of my day will be spent watching netflix and looking over notes and lesson plans for this week of classes.

Peace!

Later Taters!
