Isn’t it funny how we like to know what others are eating? I’d like to act like I don’t care what people are eating, but I do. It’s interesting. My friend Jaelyn and I always talk to each other about our diet changes, pretty much every week. I strive to be stronger and better at CrossFit like her so I always wonder what she’s chowing down on.
So after a few people asked what I ate in a day, I decided to instagram it! Why wouldn’t I instagram?! I freaking love it. I take so many unneeded pictures, it’s just stupid. So if you follow me on instagram @paleomg, you’ve already been bored to tears with my food and JOKES ON YOU, you get to see it again.
So this was my food intake on Thursday. It was a rest day so I did absolutely no sort of exercise. It was awesome.
5:30am – Grande Americano from Starbucks with a side of heavy cream. I’m guessing I added about 3-4 tablespoons of heavy cream to my coffee….maybe drank a tablespoon or so from the cup. Whatever. I probably drank half of it. I get bored quickly.
8:00am- Breakfast included about 1/4 cup of blueberries, a ground bison burger with homemade paleo ketchup, mustard, and avocado on top.
10:30 – 12:00 – Shopping for girl clothes. This is how clothes fit. I need shorts. Blaaaaahh. Effin CrossFit. I found jeans though!! At Old Navy. Go there CrossFit women, go there.
12:00 – WHOLE FOODS TRIP!! I snacked on 5-6 dried figs
12:30 – Lunch from Whole Foods- shredded chicken, marinated mushrooms, artichokes, and roasted red peppers.
1:30 – I ate 2 failed pumpkin raspberry muffins. I guess the first failed one didn’t fail enough, so I had to try a second one….what? I’m dumb. They still tasted good, it was just like eating batter in the middle…which I guess I’m cool with.
5:00 – 3 glasses of iced tea at Happy Hour at Delite.
8:30 – For dinner, I ate a tuna steak. My crush cooked it up. I’ve always thought I hated tuna steaks and raw fish, but I loved it. Expanding my taste buds with a dude cooking for me! NBD.
Wow. Bored yet? I am. I have recently started to try to eat more, but kind of failed on this day. Trying to eat more protein, more frequently.
Sorry I just fell asleep…from boredom. Sorry my food and life aren’t more exciting. Shucks.
juli try Express shorts – I love them- they aren’t real tight around the legs. I don’t remember what they are called but they have 3 buttons running down the middle of front of each leg. I have a really tough time with shorts too 🙂
OMG your abs are amazing!!! I know what you mean about the butt/waist ratio. For jeans, I’m obsessed with curvy fit jeans. I’m a size 6/8 in Lulu and I get a 2 or 4 in the jeans.
For shorts I really like jcrew – especially the outlet if you have one.
I don’t know why I like seeing full day eating posts too. But I do. I have to tell myself that when I feel ridiculous about posting my daily eats.
I have the worst time with shorts and pants! Glad I am not alone.
Never bored with your food picks! I had avocado today too!
I have a weird obsession with daily foodstuffs as well….also, share your pain with the clothes issue. It can be frustrating….
yes. my ass is indeed a 4 and my waist is maybe a 00/0…..awesome. Thanks for laughing at my absurd proportions saleslady. But we are crossfit strong and that is badass. I would rather have to buy a size or two up and have the waist taken in/ leave in frustration vs being all soft/saggy.
Keep doing what you’re doing- love your food, blog, etc 🙂
One day I will have JB abs, one day. Its a good idea i think to constantly evaluate your macronutrient break down, gets you more in tune with what you need to perform better and improve your bodyfat composition. I miss grilling fish, girlfriend hates it, bah…i may just grill some monday when she’s at work and enjoy it in peace!
Thanks for sharing. My weight loss has stalled and after seeing what you, a true athlete, are eating, I’m defintely overdoing the nuts and “paleo goodies”.
I notice that there”s not many veggies or greens. Is this representative of a typical day?
I wondered that too! I eat a salad as either lunch or dinner on pretty much a daily basis, and I figured it would be a part of a paleo diet. I’m brand new to paleo, though, so that may be completely wrong.
It’s always different, sometimes yes, sometimes no
seriously, i want your abs.
so i gave up on shorts/pants waist/thigh ratio fitting and resigned myself to always having to wear a belt.
I have the same issue with pants/shorts. 🙁 Old navy is one of the few places that I can usually find something to wear. Big, muscular booty…I am not complaining! 😀
