Day 3 went so much smoother!  I’m starting to get the hang of the containers and the portions that we need for each meal.  I was much more satisfied this time and was actually surprised by how much each container holds.  They look small but actually hold hefty portion sizes!

BREAKFAST

Greek yogurt + homemade granola + 1/2 a banana

1/2R + 1Y + 1/2P

LUNCH

Kale salad + smoked salmon + pineapple

1G + 1R + 1P + 1 O

I make a big batch of this salad, dress it with a homemade balsamic dressing and it makes a few days worth of salad.  Since the veggies in the mix are things like kale, brussels sprouts, and cabbage, the dressing doesn’t weight it down or make it soggy.  It gets better the longer it sits!

The kale salad mix I get at Costco.

DINNER

Shrimp Pho + zucchini noodles

1.5 R + 2G

This turned out to be a lot of food and I didn’t even finish my bowl!

EXERCISE

Was Pilates Fix and that used a resistance band for the whole 30 minutes.  It was challenging and different as I haven’t used resistance bands in that way before.  It provides a nice change from using weights all the time.  Just like weights, you can always increase the resistance to make the moves more challenging.
