What I Ate Wednesday +my weekly review of X3!

Wow, hump day already!!! Hard to believe we are already halfway through this week!


This past week was a delicious one!! I will let the photos speak for themselves...

A lovely mocha from my favorite coffee shop in town...Blenz! They always do the cutest latte art! This was  a treat from my hubby after we had a little daytime date.

Breakfast hash with over easy egg

Sole with breakfast hash

Dates with peanut butter and coconut manna

Korean BBQ....yum!


I call this leftover soup...it's quite literally all leftovers. It's a carrot-cauliflower soup I made  and I threw in some leftover peas, leftover corn, and leftover fish.

From Moderne Burger...So tasty.

Another tasty bit from Moderne. Make sure to read about our experience there!

Relaxing morning with my Shakeology and working on coming up with some new projects!

Noodle-less Mongolian BBQ.

Now, to work all this delicious food off I had to work hard. This last week I was mostly in the transition week of P90X3, and I just entered into block 2! I had to change from doing the Classic Version to the Lean Version because the classic was too pull up heavy and I still have an injury I am recovery from. So, here is my week in workouts:

Wednesday Accelerator (super fun, but way more work than I thought it would be lol)

Thursday: Pilates X (super core work, I forgot how hard Pilates was)

Friday: CVX (this is one of my favorites!)

Saturday: X3 Yoga...originally wasn't feeling well, but after having some shakeology and I nap I dug in and got it done, was a fantastic workout and I felt amazing afterward!

Sunday: Rest day

Monday: Accelerator

Tuesday: The Warrior

Up on deck today: X3 Yoga....this is my absolute favorite!

What did you do to work your body this past week?!

What I Ate Wednesday +weekly workout update!

Happy Wednesday y'all! I can't believe we are at the end of January already...this year is going to fly by, I just know it!

We have a very busy month coming up in February so get ready for some awesome food posts as at one point we are going out of the country and at another point we are spending some time in Seattle!

This week though was fairly busy and honestly I forgot to take pictures of my food. :-/ I have been running a couple of fitness challenge groups and trying to guide people to better health and nutrition so while I am eating well, it's sort of on the back burner for me to take pictures. But, I do have a couple of things to show y'all...




This is bone broth! Basically, for my cauliflower soup in my meal plan for this week I needed some broth. In the 21 Day Sugar Detox book they tell you how to make bone broth. It's super easy. First, I roasted a chicken so I would have some leftover for making lunches & some dinners this week. Next, I took the carcass & put it in the crockpot with 2 quarts of water (8 cups) and half a bulb of garlic. I let it cook for 8 hours on high & then just before I went to bed I reset it for 10 hours and then turned it off when I got up, it smells so delicious and tastes even better! It made 5 nice size jars of broth!

This is the cauliflower I bought for the week I am going to make with these:
Cauli-rice
&
Mashed Cauliflower.
The cuali-rice I will serve one meal with just coconut oil and salt & pepper like regular rice and the other one I will make like a fried rice with coconut aminos, peas, carrots, and a little egg scrambled in. For the mashed cauliflower I will be using this recipe. Yummy!

This was my snack yesterday...double chocolate shakeoloyg (4 oz unsweetened chocolate almond milk, 6-8 oz water mixed with a scoop of chocolate shakeology). It is so, so, so yummy! Love it!

Now my workouts have looked like this:
Wed: X3Yoga
Thurs: CVX
Friday: The Warrior
Saturday: Learned to snowboard with the fam
Sunday: Rest...was so sore from snowboarding I could hardly move lol
Monday: Isometrix
Tuesday: Dynamix
Today: Accelerator

This week since Monday has been my transition week into block 2 of P90X3. It has been absolutely fantastic! I am really loving it and really feeling the deep down effects! Here are some pictures...

From dynamix. The big picture is my post workout...I totally rocked it! The rest are just clips taken throughout. It's a super fun one! You work up a great sweat!

This is from Isometrix. This is the first time I'd ever done this one. It was basically all plank work & balance work. I can't wait to do it again!

For more on my P90X3 journey check out my youtube channel I post a video diary each day immediately after my workout!
