WIAW: Give me more

Monday was a very busy day for me, but I fueled my body with healthy eats all day long.

I am linking up with the What I ate Wednesday crew to share my food journal from Monday.

My Monday started off early as usual. I woke up and immediately drank a glass of water to get going. I wasn’t really feeling the whole coffee thing, I know its’ weird but I had 2 sips and I was done. I thought to myself I’m going to be tired today but lets try without the caffeine.

I made myself 2 eggs, sautéed spinach and potatoes.

It was perfect and filling. Before I knew it, I had to head out the door to go teach my Group Power class. After teaching the same class the day before, I went into the workout a bit sore and my muscles were tired. I had to lighten my weights on a couple of the exercises so that I could make it to the end!

After class, I refueled with a Chocolate Shakeology with banana, and a serving of Pistachio nuts.

OMG I love pistachios. They are hands down my favorite nut and that’s why I need to portion them out or else I could eat them all. Ava also snacked on some with me.

We packed up and headed back to the YMCA so that I could teach Fit For Life while Ava played at the childcare. My class was packed and we all agreed it was a good workout.

For lunch I ate some leftover chicken cutlets, green beans, baby carrots, 1/2 sweet potato and a granny smith apple.

Healthy & Filling, AGAIN.

Ava napped after lunch, I did my computer work, some blog stuff, & laundry. When she woke up we took Cooper for a quick walk and then I ate a bowl of Peanut Butter Oats with some strawberries.

YUM! (yes that’s a toddler bowl, we ran out of regular ones)

I dropped Ava & Cooper at my parents and headed to one of my in-home clients for a training session. I know it’s my job to train people and help them get into shape but I LOVE IT. There’s something so rewarding about being a personal trainer and I’m so glad I have that opportunity.

I picked Ava & Cooper up, we headed home and I quickly threw some dinner on the table.

When I mean threw together dinner, I mean I opened the fridge, took out some leftover thai food, heated it up and served it on a plate ;)

I had brown rice topped with Chicken Basil and some chicken brown with veggies. It was SO delicious and I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed not cooking on a Monday night. I also had seconds which are not pictured!

I finished off my night with a slice of my homemade pumpkin bread & some raspberries and strawberries. The recipe is so good, we have already gone through 2 loafs. I will be posting the recipe soon.

What’s something yummy you ate this week?

Are you a fan of pumpkin bread?

  1. Yum, all of your meals look delicious. I give you lots of credit for those healthy options when you’re so on the go! I’m craving berries now after seeing those strawberries!

    • Thanks Sarah!! I try my best to eat 90% healthy :) It’s easier when I do my food prep on Sundays, if not my food is not as organized!

  2. I love basil chicken! It’s the only thing I order at a Thai restaurant, only because it’s delicious and I’m afraid to try something else!

    • It’s one of my favorite too!! We have been enjoying red curry too. When we are with a bunch of other people that’s when I usually try something new :)
