What I ate today…
Breakfast:
Muesli bowl with almond milk, flax seeds, blueberries and raspberries
Red pepper hummus with whole wheat toast
Exercise:
Did some weightlifting:
- Leg press
- Bench Press
- Pull ups
Post Workout:
Had a quick Vegan mocha protein shake with flax seeds
Chickpea curry with brussel sprouts
Dinner:
Same as lunch but added a bit more greens
Shopping:
Went vegan shopping at trader joe’s. Here’s what $98.77 gets you 🙂
Got some Vegan must haves like:
- Cashews
- Almonds
- White kidney beans
- Avocados
- Yams
- Extra firm Tofu
I included some emergency snacks like pre-made tofu with sriracha sauce.
Also got some Pea protein powder to further increase my protein intake. Not sure if this brand is good but I just grabbed it.
Review:
Day 3 went fine. So far I haven’t really seen any major issues. I had already prepared the chickpea curry a day or two ago so it was good just to pop it in the microwave.
Food prep is going to be the hardest challenge so I need to make sure I build some positive cooking habits. My plan right now is to cook/food shop on days when I don’t workout. I think that should be a good enough to start with.
So far so good 🙂
