Yesterday:

Brekkie, usual breakfast casserole, coffee

Last group training with my wild coach - starting next week I will be with my KB coach twice a week rather than once. I really like my new coach's style, very different and I think he is a better fit for me in the long run - though I did greatly enjoy the crazy workouts from my first coach. The new one is more like a guru, very understated and educates/gets us to think for ourselves. JUST as intense as my first coach - just a very different style and many more years of experience. I've already learned a lot from him. Session followed with protein shake. I've saved many of the crazy workouts from the last 22 months for my own use.

L: pastured ham, steamed veggies
D: more ham (butter lettuce wrapped with fermented pickles, roasted veggies, a cup of hot bone broth (for the gelatin) with salt/pepper - yumm!

Today: Rest day
B: The usual, see above
L: more of the same (need to go shopping) with leftover roasted veggies from last night, fermented ramp kraut
D: A salmon/avocado/veggie "roll", steamed veggies, and a beer

Keeping a close eye on the weather so I can finalize my weekend activities - it looks like a short ride might be possible tomorrow

[Crankin]

B: chicken drumstick, half a sweet potato, an orange, green tea
L: left over brown rice/veggie burger patty, an apple, quarter avocado
went on a 23 mile ride and ate about 1/3 of a Lara Bar at the start, finishing it during the ride, at a coffee stop. Then had a slice of raisin spelt bread with cashew butter when I got home
D: salmon, sauteed over corn, red pepper, and green onions with a cider vinegar sauce, roasted broccolini, salad. 2 squares dark chocolate

[Catrin]

Today:

B: Last of the current frittata, coffee
Solo KB Clean/BB Deadlift workout - followed by protein shake

In the Orthodox Church, the week after Pascha/Easter is called 'Bright Week', pretty much we feast all week. I've not done that, but I DID drop by a Farmer's Market after my workout and among other things, bought a dish with 1/2 cup of THE most incredible gourmet ice cream! "Gorgonzola Pecan", sounds bizarre but I can't express just how good it was.

L: At the same market - another frittata and a nice salad.
S: 1 beer
Dinner - planning on roasted chicken and steamed veggies.

Bike ride tomorrow afternoon I am thinking - either before or after a nice little trail run. I've not been on the bike in 6 months so am really looking forward to it!

[Crankin]

B: small bowl of quinoa/spelt cereal with almond milk and 1/2 a banana, 6 oz tuna with 1/4 avocado, coffee
L: curried egg salad with chopped apples and pecans in 2 butter lettuce leaves, bowl of sliced mango and strawberries, which I couldn't finish
I did about 45 minutes of hill walking on the tradmill and functional stuff with the weights, stretching from my winter training DVDs.
D: had friends over for dinner. I made a dip out of peas, avocado, yogurt and spices. It tasted a little weird, but everyone liked it. Had some of that with sliced red pepper and Manchengo, glass of white wine. Made chicken-green chili enchiladas; new recipe very good. Refried black beans and a salad.

[Crankin]

B: omelette with lox and onions, a little goat cheese, bowl of blueberries, half a banana, orange slices, coffee/tea
S: an apple

S: an orange, slice of spelt bread with almond butter

[Crankin]

B: chicken drumstick, half a sweet potato, 1/4 an avocado, an orange, coffee
rode my bike to work (5.4 miles)
L: chef salad, an apple
S: had a Lara Bar at 3, and a slice of raisin spelt bread with cashew butter before I left to ride home, around 6:20
D: I made a soup made of cannelloni beans, fennel, onion. Sprinkled with toasted almonds, mint and a little fresh grated parmesan

[Crankin]

Today

B: veggie/pork egg frittata. Casserole thing. Whatever it is coffee

Great kettlebell group training session, followed by some running and rowing intervals then protein shake.

I forgot/didn't have time for lunch.

S: ham, banana

D: Argulla salad, ham. Wine and 85% dark chocolate

[Crankin]

B: I made the mistake of giving into a craving for oatmeal. Bad choice, because despite the fact I added walnuts and some almond milk with blueberries, I was hungry about 30 minutes later. Never again.
S: 2 dried apricots before a very hard step and sculpt class
L: veggie wrap (whole wheat) and a cup of chicken soup at a restaurant
D: stuffed 1/4 of a butternut squash. The stuffing was the inside of the squash, spinach, ginger, mushrooms, with a topping of toasted quinoa flakes and panko. side of roasted broccoli, half a glass of red wine and 2 squares dark chocolate

[Catrin]

Crankin, the oatmeal might work for you if you add in a significant protein source, like perhaps some sausage? Walnuts don't have that much...
