Today was one of my busier days, so I was curious if this way of eating would give me enough energy. Well, it actually did and I still didn't eat enough calories...still working on that! Here's what I ate today:
banana....pre-workout
protein shake....post workout (almond milk and whey protein powder)
banana
1 1/2 cups watermelon
1 1/2 cups grapes
1 cup of strawberries (with a little fruit dip a friend made)
2 bananas
6 leaves of romaine lettuce
1/2 red pepper with a little hummus
about 10 grape tomatoes
1/2 protein shake
(i totally cheated at my ladies group and had that dip with the strawberries and a few....gasp...pigs in a blanket....the mini ones. i know it's awful and i regret it, but i am proud that i didn't give in to any of the wonderful smelling cinnamon rolls and other baked goods. there is a small victory in there somewhere.)
I had a softball game last night and had plenty of energy for that, which was great (and we won....still undefeated). My husband felt good yesterday with the exception of a headache when he woke up, but it was gone by mid-day. His only complaint is that he has to chew his food more b/c it's not the processed junk that melts in you mouth, but he's enjoying this way of eating so far. I'm already into day 3 and will post on it tonight. :)
