My Weekly Nutrition and Training Plan


The below nutrition plan is what I eat Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday during the day I still eat clean but will eat whatever is left over or what I have around my apartment. Saturday and Sunday's for dinner are when I have my "treat" meals. I switch up my eating every week. I plan the week before what I want to have for meals, make the grocery list, and prep the food on Sunday's. A lot of times people will ask me if I get bored eating the same thing everyday. The answer is no. It is only 5 days a week that I eat the same thing. I eat to live - not live to eat. It took me a long time to come to that.  I also do this to save money. I live alone so I can't really cook tons of different things during the week because it's too expensive and will go bad. There are also ways you can switch up your eating day to day. Like my Quest Bars for instance; I eat a different flavor everyday, same with my yogurt. 

Total down (since 11/25/13):  36.8 pounds!

Meal 1 (7:15 AM)
2 coconut flour "muffins", topped with sugar free/high fiber jelly and two pieces of turkey bacon 
*I buy my turkey bacon at Earthfare, only 4 ingredients in it. It's expensive but worth it if you are craving bacon. Coconut flour is rich in fiber, low in calories and is the perfect substitution for regular flour. It is gluten free and fits paleo diets. 


Meal 2 (10:30 AM)
Quest Protein Bar (the flavor varies day to day) and a large apple


Meal 3 (1:15 PM)
Egg white and vegetarian "meat" casserole with chia seeds. 
*This is a random concoction I threw together because I was craving sausage and egg casserole. However, it is a fail. It is tolerable, but I will not be sharing the recipe (not that you probably want it) until I do a little more trial and error. 


Meal 4 (4 PM) - [Pre-workout]
1 Light and Fit 80 calorie Greek Yogurt with a tablespoon of chia seeds and plain sliced almonds.


Gym: 5-6:15(30)

Meal 5 (7 PM)
Half of a Quest Bar (the flavor varies day to day) with 1 tablespoon of chocolate PB2. This is actually a very small snack, it's enlarged for picture quality. However, don't judge the snack by the size - this is 11g of protein!


Meal 6 (8:30 PM)
3 oz of top sirloin with homemade red mashed potatoes and whole green beans.
*I poked holes in the sirloin (because it has no fat, it can be tough) and marinated them in balsamic vingerette for 24 hours. I cooked via stovetop and sprinkled Carolina blackened seasoning. I made the mashed potatoes by boiling baby red potatoes until soft, placed them in a big bowl, sprinkled Garlic and Wine seasoning, melted 1/4 coconut oil and poured over potatoes, and 1 cup of plain Almond Milk. I then blended everything together with a mixer.

Thursday: (Plyometric Full Body)
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about my "at home" workout that I created since I was snowed in for two days and could not go to the gym. I call this "The Hot Mess Express". I was incredibly sore for days after this work out, so I decided to do it once a week because it was so hard. My heart rate was through the roof and it worked every muscle in my body. My shoulders, abs, and thighs were the most sore. It is a little difficult to explain, but I will try my best. I hope to do a full blog entry and YouTube video for this soon. It truly is AWESOME.

I created a playlist on my Iphone that is an hour and 10 minutes of upbeat pop and rap songs and I blast that on my blue-tooth speaker while I exercise. It's about 12 songs, so I do 12 different routines. I repeat the routine for the entire song then switch.

Below are different routines I do during a song. I repeat the exercises for the entire song then I will move onto the next routine:

-Mini suicides runs:
-Kickboxing cardio routines (I have 3-4 different routines for this. I do not know the names of the exercises so that is why I am not listing that out right now)
-10 Jumpsquats, run in place, then 10 jumping jacks
-10 regular jumping jacks, 10 scissor jumping jacks, jog around the living room
-10 pushups, jog down the hallway, walking lunges back to the living room
-20 burpees, 10 high kicks
-10 pushups, jog around the couch, 10 jumpjacks

Friday: (Rest)

Saturday: (Hiking)
Hiking at Crowder's Mountain
