Weekly Workouts + What I Ate in a Day

Yayyyyyyy! It’s a new week. I hated last week. It was the longest short week I’ve ever experienced (I’m being a drama queen). I could not be more excited for a fresh start to a new week. I’m ready to concentrate on positivity, hard work and consistency.

And through all those things, consistency is what I’m trying to concentrate on most. We live in a world where if we don’t think we are growing in some capacity, we feel as though that we are falling behind. And I mean that mostly in the quantifiable perspective. If we aren’t losing weight or gaining weight or losing inches or putting more weight on the barbell or getting more reps – if we aren’t seeing the numbers, we feel like we aren’t growing or changing. But life doesn’t always have to be about numbers. It can also be about growth and happiness and most of all, consistency.

It’s easy to feel like you’re not progressing if you’re not seeing numbers change. And I fall into this category regularly. I’ll look at others and feel as though everyone is progressing except for me. And it’s a downward spiral from there. Social media can be a mind f*ck. But I simply try to remember that consistency will pay off long term. I might not always see numbers change week to week, but I will be able to continue my goal of being a healthy person both physically and mentally as long as I stay consistent with everything in my life. Remember that consistency is such a huge piece to progress, even when we don’t see the quantifiable changes. Whether you’re consistent with your diet, your workouts, your school work, your relationship…consistency will continue your journey to progress, even when it doesn’t feel that way at times.

So let’s kick Monday off together by staying consistent with our longterm goals and continue to look at the bigger picture, instead of the small numbers we want to see this very minute.

Once I woke up, I started my day off how I always do – with coffee at 6am. I made a hot cup of coffee with a tablespoon or so of heavy cream, some liquid stevia and a heaping tablespoon of collagen.

For breakfast, I had leftovers from the night before from the cookbook Dinner. It included roasted chicken in harissa with potatoes, yogurt and herbs.

Later on in the morning, I had a almond milk latte at Olive & Finch and didn’t finish all of it.

For lunch, I had a green goddess chicken salad at Hedge Row.

For a snack later on, I had 3 dried apricots

Then a little later on, I had 1/2 Primal Kitchen peanut butter bar.

For dinner, I had a bowl of leftover instant pot gnocchi soup and and a small bowl of leftover air fryer brussels sprouts (both recipes coming soon to the blog!)
