What does my week of food and exercise look like?

A few weeks ago, I decided to make a log my workouts and what I was eating to be more conscious of my patterns. I think it is healthy to be mindful about what we put in our bodies but also not to restrict ourselves to a “diet.” I am posting this so you can see what an average week is like for me, and so you can see I am not on a calorie restrictive diet, just a healthy one. And yes, there is a difference!

I hope this helps you realize you can eat healthy and still be a normal human. There are times when you don’t have many options, like when I opted for Taco Bell bean burritos. That is life! All we can do is our best each day. Remember your diet should be about balance! If you want some more healthy recipe ideas click here!
