Breakfast for Scott and I: Scrambled eggs with spinach and a couple slices of crispy crumbled crispy bacon on top. I had 2 eggs and Scott had 3. With a fried up plantain on the side. With black coffee.
Day 3 I'd love to hear if anyone is feeling low in energy, extra hungry or particularly irritable. Stay strong, with withdrawal it will get worse before it gets better.
B: handful of nutts L: 1 chicken thigh, 1 drum, 2 sausages, about 2 cups of yams L: 4 eggs, 1 apple post run workout: 2 pieces of chicken, 1 cup of yams My dinner will be steak and veg and I'll have probably a banana and some fat later tonight.
So far so good in terms of this week. I am just getting back into working out so not sure yet on how this diet is effecting that. The challenge will be to make sure I'm getting the post workout nutrition I need to recover.
There are other good carbs options post wod, other than yams if you need variety. Starches are an Athlete’s Best Friend Other tubers, like potatoes and carrots can work. Squash, all kinds of squash are in seasons right now. Acorn, butternut, kabocha. Try peppers, zucchini and cauliflower.
But best to stay away from fruits post wod, as they contain more sugar and sucrose than starch.
Also today I boiled a bunch of eggs for quick easy to carry protein.
More grilled chicken and roasted yam. An apple with almond butter and a decaf Americano.
Snack: A mini Lemon pepper tuna can with a coconut larabar. I wouldn't recommend it. It didn't go together at all, but I left the house so early and packed hastily!
Dinner: Organic beef patty, roasted broccoli and a bowl of sweet Potatoe soup. For sweets I had a bowl of Concord grapes. And a spoonful of coconut butter.
B: banana and almond butter, coffee with almond milk S: dried fruit & berries L: tuna avocado salad S: more dried fruit & berries D: blackened chicken with butter and asparagus - chris said butter was paleo approved, so I did. Judge him not me :)
i haven't worked out yesterday but i still was feeling tired and sore. didn't feel like working out today either, but i am glad i did!
