Amanda... I'm noticing that most days for you (and a number of others) that you are missing a protein source for your snack. We need to make sure that we are eating balanced meals in order for our hormones to be secreted and utilized appropriately. When one hormone starts to get disproportionate to another, other hormones follow suit then the body is in a world of trouble. The trouble may not be immediate, but in the long run it can be devastating.
Hey Amanda, I'm not an egg person, so I'll usually have meat or fish with the meals I eat. For snacks, it's a few bites of meat, then the carb & fat. Others seems to like hard boiled eggs for snacks.
Meal 1: omelette with ground beef & green onion; 1 banana, blueberries, pecans. Meal 2: salad with mixed greens, chicken, boiled egg, pear, dried cherries, cucumbers, flax seed; almond butter. Meal 3: salmon, broccolini, almonds; black americano from starbucks (needs an extra shot next time - too watery - for those into the black coffee!!). Meal 4: salad with mixed greens, beef tenderloin, cucumber, tomatoes, green onion, avocado, walnuts, dried blueberries, flax seed oil. Meal 5 (Post WOD): protein shake with almond butter; sweet potatoes.
