I’m blogging my way through the 21 day fix. I’m almost halfway there!
Here’s day 10 –
Meal 1: 1 Red 2 Green 1 Purple .5 Yellow 2 Tsp
Shakeology
1 Cup Berries
1 Cup Almond Milk
1 Cup Spinach
1 Cup Kale
2 Tsp peanut butter powder
Pretty sure I have a packed Shakeology addiction at this point. It’s my favorite after my morning workout. Or evening workout. Any workout really.
Meal 2: 1 Red 1 Yellow
2 Eggs
Sandwich Thin
Imagine there is twice as much here. Forgot to take the picture before I started eating.
Meal 3: 1 Blue 1 Red 1 Yellow1 Orange 2 Green 2 Tsp
Taco Mac Monterey Chicken Salad
So, Maggie was not feeling great this morning so I took her into theater camp late. In all the crazy of the morning – essential oiling her up, getting her food, making sure she was going to be good – I FORGOT TO PACK FOOD FOR ME! The plan was to drop her at camp and then stay down near camp and work in Starbucks until it was over because the drive back wasn’t worth it. I LEFT THE HOUSE FOR A PLANNED FOUR HOURS WITHOUT ANY FOOD! This is the first time I’ve made this mistake since starting the 21 Day Fix.
So, rather than panicking (okay after I panicked for a minute), I thought about what was near and decided to get a salad at Taco Mac. The Monterey Chicken Salad seemed doable. With a vinaigrette dressing on the side, it really hit the spot.
And, of course I had to celebrate National Iced Tea Day. I mean. I do love my tea.
Meal 4: 1 Yellow
Skinny Pop
The salad for lunch was VERY FILLING. So much so that I hardly ate much the rest of the day. This sounds good, but actually left me short on some of my containers. Well, that’s if I counted the salad containers right. A little snack for dinner.
Meal 5: 1 Red 1 Purple
Light Ricotta
Peach
Cinnamon
And, of course, I ended the evening with my favorite.
Totals for the day:
4 Green (short 1)
2 Purple (short 1)
4 Red (short 1)
3.5 Yellow (short .5)
1 Blue
1 Orange
4 Tsp (short 1)
Workout: Lower Fix (3o min DVD) I have to use the lighter weights on the lower fix because if I don’t it puts too much pressure on my knees. Not as painful as last week so that’s a win.
Takeaways:
- There is no need to panic when you leave the house without food. You can make wise choices when you go out. It’s all about thinking it through.
- You will start to see food in terms of containers. I looked at the chicken on my salad at Taco Mac and was like “That’s not even a full red worth of chicken!” Of course, there was also bacon.
