I thought I’d start a blog where we could all post our favorite clean foods.  
I am trying to get my butt back into gear and having some new ideas on meals and meal combinations is definitely something that will help.  I am just a little bored at times with food and am trying to be more creative while still eating clean and staying on track.

I guess I will start by posting one of my favorite post work our treats.  

Big Oatmeal Cookie

1/3 c. oats
1 sc. vanilla protein powder
1 egg white
1/4 c. unsweetened apple sauce
1/4 t. baking powder
1/4 t. cinnamon
5 packets of splenda

Mix in a big bowl with a fork and spoon onto a cookie sheet as one large cookie. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes until the edges start to brown. It makes one dinner plate sized cookie. I spray a few sprays of butter spray on top and eat it warm out of the oven. YUM!

Per fitday:

Total: 248
Fat: 3
Carbs: 26
Protein: 29

I also like to mix one scoop of protein with 1 cup of egg whites and make it in a pan with non stick spray.  Like a pancake.  I do this on low carb days.

share some of your meal ideas….:)

I just started having these massive headaches.  Last week I was just warming up, doing a little of jump rope and Bang, I get this pain on the left side of my head around my temple and it runs to part of my ear.  I slowed down and just walked in the treadmill.  Saturday I am back to the gym and as I was doing a dead lift, I got it again.  Its almost immediately once I start weight lifting, this time I swear I felt something pop around the temple area in my head.  I was not able to work hard through the rest of my work out and found myself just rubbing and sitting down through most of my work out. I took Sunday off and I went in again yesterday when I go and get the same thing.  I was just starting to do lat pull downs.  
I am very flustered with this.  I want to go in and work hard and this is driving me insane.  I still feel pressure today and a slight headache.  
Is this a common thing?

I made it through the day of yesterday. OMG
I was dying. I also tried the Tabada. OMG it was the hardest 4 minutes but it felt good. I had to wait a bit before I could walk ok, I did the front squats no weight, just body weight. I think I will keep doing them and then slowly add.

These no carb or very low carb days are a challenge.

How often do you get off track sometimes?  
This week I pretty much have not done much, went to the gym sunday, killed my legs.  Monday did back and just made it back last night and did a little something.  I kind of wanted to take a week off to organize myself and try to really focused on a plan.  I feel like my work outs are not consistent and I am all over the place.  I also ate whatever I wanted.  I kind of feel guilty but its done.

I really dont’ like feeling this way.  I need to get out of it.  I start doubting myself and feel like I am not where I want to be.  

I guess my real questions is, how normal is this?  Do we just all go through it and its a matter of just getting back on track.  but how?

Well I am not feeling all that great today, the weather doesnt seem to help either.  
I was doing a low calorie day yesterday and I didnt stick to it.  I have been doing so well that I am so dissapointed now.  I have just been feeling tired and I swear feeling like an addict wanting some burgers…or fast food.  I mean, it was just hard yesterday.  I was doing good but I didnt pack enough veggies, that probably would have helped.  I didnt plan well so I take responsibility for it.  

So here it goes, good or bad my food log.

Well I am super happy, I got my body fat tested and droped 9 lbs and went from 25.3%bf to 21.9.  I am super happy.  I get it checked every 3 months.  All my hard work and diet is paying off.  

My goal is to get to 18-19% body fat by the next time I get it checked.  Maybe then i will get motivated to do my first competition or I can always wait.  One goal at a time seems to work best.  

Today I feel a lot better, I had a good food day yesterday and manage to stay within my numbers.  I also made it to the gym.  I was not planning on it but i got my butt in there.  There was a point in the night I thought I should just stay home.  I looked my self out of my car and it was cold as shit trying to get my keys, of course when I gave up I found my spare and my oldest daughter said, mom you should go to the gym a release that anger…lol…so I manage 30 min of the spinning class and 20 min on the stride.  I also did a little triceps and then went home.  

Below is my food log for the day of yesterday.  Today is leg day and I can’t wait to go to the gym already.  :)
