I've decided on a new workout plan starting next week. I'm going to run in the morning 5x per week and I'm going to do fight training/strength training at least 4x per week. I plan on doing a few 2 a days (Mondays, Thursday and Fridays) and Tuesday and Saturday I will do cardio and strength together. I may just do 3 days of running that first week just to get acclimated to the 2 a day situation but I'm planning on going into beast mode so soon!
Nothing too exciting to show meal wise today but I'll show you what I photographed. I'm trying something out tonight and I'll post the review and results tomorrow! You'll have to stay tuned!
OK, so here's what I've eaten/photographed today:

Smoothie to go! I was inspired by Shen's breakfast on the go photos ;)
Lunch was a salad that I had to eat with chopsticks because we had no forks. It was fun!
A super close up of my Mexican Quinoa Bowl. I love this as a high protein post workout meal. Yum!
Ok, that's all for now! So glad tomorrow is friday even though I have a wedding on Saturday. I hope you all have a great night and that you Friday goes quickly for you! Last day of the cleanse tomorrow!
wow! what an amazing cleanse journey you've been on! I'm so happy and excited for you! i know it was a difficult 3 weeks --- good for you for sticking to it!!! woooo!! and look at you and your bad workout self!! :) that is so inspiring and motivating! have a terrific friday!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Caralyn! It was definitely difficult in the beginning but now I'm feeling better than ever! Very excited to start the new routine! :)
DeleteThanks, you too!
Can you believe it's the end?! I bet you've already established a habit or two that will be part of your normal routine. Sounds like a solid workout plan! I'll be cheering you on from here!
ReplyDeleteIs there a little chocolate protein powder in that smoothie? It certainly looks like it, but perhaps I'm mistaken! :) Chopsticks and salad sounds difficult, but easier than rice! I've had a lot of guacamole recently, but your quinoa bowl still looks really good.
I'm so happy tomorrow is Friday! This whole going somewhere and paying attention for eight hours thing, is overrated. Ha! ;) Can't wait to see your Fun Friday post!
I definitely think I've developed many new, good habits! I'm excited to keep going! Thank you so much, it's going to be difficult but it's going to make me so much stronger!
DeleteYes I used one of the Chocolate Vega packets. It has strawberries, banana and chocolate powder with some spinach as well. The salad wasn't too bad with chopsticks! The quinoa bowl is my new favorite meal :)
Me too! Hope the the training is going well! can't wait to do my Fun Friday post!
Those three weeks really went by fast! That's so great that you made it through and your plan sounds like a super beast mode!
ReplyDeleteThe quinoa bowl always looks so good. Mmmmm....
I know, it got so much easier after that horrible third day ;) I feel great, can't wait to keep going down this past! Definitely going into super beast/shred mode :) It's going to be a great summer!
DeleteThanks! It was tasty, give it a try!
You're almost at the finish line! Congrats! You must feel so clean and refreshed :)
ReplyDeleteAnd there's that protein bowl again...so tempting!
Gabby @ the veggie nook
Thank you so much! I do feel really refreshed! That is the perfect way to describe it!
DeleteThanks! So good!
Wow, congrats on doing such a long cleanse! Is it just all clean eating? I might have to pick up that book :)
ReplyDeleteMake sure you get enough rest between runs. I only did 3-4 runs a week while training.
Thank you! It's basically clean eating, high raw and gluten free which I do anyway. It has a lot more than food in it too. I just highlighted what I was eating but she basically makes you really do a lot of soul searching and I found that to be incredibly rewarding. :)
DeleteYes, I will definitely get a lot of rest! I am planning on doing 5 days a week while I'm still only running 2 miles at a time. As I build distance I will probably cut it down to 4 days a week.
What? What? What? If there's one thing I'm not, it's on the go.
ReplyDeleteThe new B&W avatar is very nice. I may need to commission you to do mine, cuz I look like crap in every pic I take.
Haha I meant your breakfast in the car photos that you've taken at red lights ;)
DeleteThank you! I'm sure that you absolutely do not look like crap in photos. Everyone is their own worst critic. I actually hate the way I look in photos so when I find one that I don't think is terrible I use it for EVERYTHING. That black and white photo is a great example of that. I took probably about 40 pics to get 2 that I thought were ok! Nothing fancy about the photos, the black and white is the same phone pic as the second one above, I just put it in Instagram and make it B&W!
made it* And the second photo in the next post! whoops!
