rest day or not, my day of eating stays the same 🫶🏼

morning drink: water, aloe juice, @goultima electrolytes

supplements: pepzin gi, omega 3, ubiquinol, ginger root, d3+k2, citrus bergamot, l-glutamine

meal 1: egg whites + rolled oats with peanut butter & blueberries

drink: cocoa roobios tea @alfred

meal 2: (most) rice, chicken, green beans, asparagus, mushrooms, avocado

meal 3: (mid) rice, top sirloin, green beans, asparagus, mushrooms

meal 4: (least) rice, chicken, green beans, asparagus, mushrooms

meal 4: flavored @quaker rice cakes (caramel + apple cinnamon + chocolate), @nakednutrition pb powder, @ritual protein powder, & almonds

all my meals are topped with pink himalayan sea salt for electrolyte balance ! but i also drink soooo much water throughout the day and add in LOTS of @goultima electrolytes 💦🍋🍓

throughout this journey, i’ve decided to not share measurements because my bioINDIVIDUAL needs will not be the same as yours !!! if you’re interested in changing your diet or starting some sort of meal plan, i reccomend talking to a license dietician or finding a coach you trust to provide you with nutritional guidance and/or plans !

i love sharing my journey, to encourage, inspire, motivate etc. but am not an expert at all in any of this !! + what works for me will not work the same for you ! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
