What I Ate Wednesday +week in review of workouts!




I have a confession. I love food. All kinds of food, but good quality food especially. Loading up on good healthy food excites me, especially with the workouts I do it is essential. 

Last week I mostly fueled myself with garbage mostly. But, this week I have redeemed myself. 

Homemade fruit, yogurt & granola parfaits made all fancy like in wine glasses.
Broccoli & egg hash.
Wednesday Treat: Vanilla Latte & chocolate covered graham crackers
Roast with mushrooms & onions, broccoli, and sweet potato fries.

I am on a major broccoli kick lately...must be lacking iron or something...

This was my favorite meal of the week! It is 21 day sugar detox friendly. Look at the stems on that broccoli! Yum, yum!

Salad bar I chopped up for the week! This has been amazing in me getting in at least one salad a day!

P90X3 Update....

Now, on to the workouts! Last week was transition week in my P90X3 journey. This is the 2nd transition week, the one before the final block.

Wednesday: Accelerator

Thursday: Pilates X

Friday: CVX

Saturday: X3 Yoga

Sunday: Nap
I was really tired after this transition week. My whole body felt the work. I am definitely seeing a major difference in my abs...60 day pics to come next Wednesday.
Monday: Decelerator
Tuesday: MMX
I really struggled through this one yesterday. I was sweating bullets. Normally MMX is an easy one for me but I must have been giving it my all because I was sweating a lot and I can really feel it in my obliques.

Today: Eccentric lower
I woke up super sore today. My glutes, arms, and back are really feeling this week! Can't believe I am in the final block of this!

What I Ate Wednesday +week in review of workouts!

Happy Wednesday all!

Today is a fun day as my daughter has cheerleading and the sun is up a bit longer so it means I can go walking/jogging while she is at cheer, get a bit of extra exercise so long as it isn't raining-*fingers crossed*.

This past week has been great in workouts! I haven't missed a single one. I'm in Week 3 now of P90X3. I can't believe how time is flying. I am really seeing some great results since I am being very careful with my diet as well and really being conscious of what I am eating. Being on the 21 Day Sugar Detox certainly helps with that. I can't wait to go get the cookbook and get practical paleo so I can have a wealth of awesome recipes at my disposal.

So, here is what my workouts look like (click the links to watch my YouTube diaries about my progress):

Wednesday: X3 Yoga
Thursday: The Challenge & Total Synergistics
Friday: CVX
Saturday: The Warrior
Sunday: 100% Rest
Monday: Total Synergistics
Tuesday: Agility X
Today: X3 Yoga

What workouts are you doing to work toward your fitness goals? I'd love to hear about them!

Now, what most of you are here for:




Spaghetti Bolognese & salad from the 21 Day Sugar Detox Cookbook. This is delicious and probably my new favourite meal!

This is from our New Restaurant Friday: Butternut squash soup and below is salmon with kale and cauliflower tots.


An over easy egg with some leftover cauliflower mash & green beans. All 21 Day sugar detox approved!

Delicious paleo pancake (21 day sugar detox friendly) with pb, cinnamon, and banana...and an over easy egg. I am finding that unless I have toast or something to soak up the runny yolk I am not really a huge fan of over easy eggs. :P

This was dinner Monday night. Shepard's Pie & an awesome salad!

This was the pie prior to dishing it out. I didn't use quite as much cauliflower though, just what i had on hand.

These are from Civilized Caveman Cooking. They are amazing sugarless banana muffins! Heavenly, even my 14 year old LOVES them!
