What I Ate Today

Today was about a 95% day, diet-wise. I always seem to fall off the 100% bandwagon on leg days! :)

6am

Omelette with 4 egg whites and
1/2c spinach and mushrooms

1/4c oatmeal with

1/4c blueberries and cinnamon

coffee

8:30 - pre-workout

Oatmeal Energy Bar - I think I've posted the recipe (if not, I will). I took out the chocolate chips.

1c. zucchini

1/4c grapefruit

12pm - post-workout

Protien shake with 1 scoop vanilla protien and

1/4c. mango

Another oatmeal energy bar (the plan was to have a sweet potato, but I needed something quick, so went for this).

1/2c zucchini

3:30pm

4oz chicken breast on

1 slice of eziekel bread with

1/2c romaine lettuce

and a little bit of natural mustard

6pm

40z tilapia

1c steamed brocolli (Kira had this for dinner too!)

8:45pm

Protien shake with 1 scoop chocolate protien

1tbsp nonfat greek yogurt

1tbsp ground flax seed

1/2c kale chips

I say it was a 95% day because I snuck a bite of Kira's Banana Cheerios - just to see what they tasted like. :) No one is perfect! Anyways, that was it. I usually try not to have two shakes in a day, but I didn't feel like having egg whites like usual, so I switched it up.

Tomorrow I will have 2 1/2 weeks until the competition. I practiced tonight with Katie for about an hour, and I just wasn't into it. I have my T-walk down to a T (hehe!), but I need to practice more with my pickaxe. I also want to practice with my suit on!!! It should be here any day now...I'm SO ready for it to get here, and praying really hard that it is perfect and doesn't need any adjustments.

I can't even describe my emotions at this point. I'm not doing a huge competition, but this is my first, and it's something I've wanted to do for a long time, set my mind to, and am now going to do it. I'm nervous, excited, terrified, proud, amazed, confident, scared...you name it! I'm so thankful to have such a stong web of support behind me. From my family and friends to my co-workers, I have a lot of people cheering me on, and that really means a lot. Now, it's time for me to get some rest. :)
