Cardio and the 21 day fix

Well my muscles are definitely feeling better today and today is my favorite workout because I get to run my 4 miles then do the video as well. Todays video is Cardio Fix.  I allow myself one extra carb serving because I am doing more than the expected with this routine.  So altogether I get 3 yellow containers instead of 2.

As I have watched many of my friends struggle with weight I can't help but notice that when they diet they lose focus on healthy.  A healthy lean person does not starve themselves instead we give our bodies the energy needed to fuel our active life.  I think that is why I really love this program.The diet is designed to teach good portion sizes as well as what we should be eating to be healthy and lean This goes along with one of my favorite quotes " Eat to live don't live to eat."


Todays meal plan includes

Breakfast:  2 boiled eggs, an apple = red container, purple container

Snack:  cherry tomatoes= green container

Lunch:  left over tacos on corn tortillas with a side of refried beans ( remember beans are yellow container) =  red container, green container and  2 yellow containers.

Snack: Banana ice cream I take a frozen cubed banana and blend it with 1/4 cup almond milk and coco powder or vanilla and a couple almonds = 1 purple container, 1 blue container

Dinner:  Turkey chili and 9 carrot sticks = red container, yellow container,  and green container

Snack: yogurt= red container
