One of my clients that I train wanted to know what I ate in a typical day. She was surprised that I could eat SO much and still be in a normal calorie range. That's the beauty of eating clean. Of course, she was thinking she could never eat like me and I told her she didn't have to. 100% paleo is tough. And you have to cook a lot. I told her she might benefit by going 60-70% paleo. "Does that mean I could still have ice-cream?" Of course you can! Just eat the serving size.
Breakfast:
1 cup egg whites
3 eggs
1 apple
1 cup almond milk
Morning Snack:
Cup of baby carrots
Banana
Lunch:
Spinach salad with can of tuna fish, 1/2 cup cashews, salsa, and cucumbers
Afternoon Snack(s):
1 apple
Cup of baby carrots
6 ounces of chicken
1/2 cup of peanuts
Dinner:
Spinach salad with can of tuna fish, salsa, and tomatoes
All adds up to about 2000 calories...but for a girl my size I probably need to be eating more. I'm getting bored with tuna and chicken. I'm thinking next week I'll try pork chops, salmon, or turkey. Wait, isn't next week Thanksgiving? Turkey is def paleo!
My goal is to go at least a whole month 100% paleo. I'm almost half way there. I've def lost weight. I don't know how much because I don't have a bathroom scale, but my clothes are loose and my friends are noticing a change. I don't want to lose too much weight because I love my muscles too much. What I'm hoping for is to lose 10-15 pounds of fat, so I'm left with a lean-mean-fighting machine of a body.
Once I reach my goal, I'll do 100% paleo 6 days a week, and 1 day go 70% paleo meaning I can have 1 cheat meal a week. I think that's deservable, don't ya think?
