Meal Planning for 80 Day Obsession

-
Today was another day of reviewing the meal plan for 80 Day Obsession and scheduling out my meals for next week when the program really kicks off. This meal plan is very specific on what to eat and when to eat, while at the same time making it quite simple through the use of the 21 Day Fix boxes. The boxes are color coded and tell you how much to eat of each macronutrient - carbs, proteins, greens, etc. They look something like this:

Easy enough, right? It was also time for another prep workout, which was the cardio workout from A Little Obsessed. Today was extra fun, because it's Saturday and I didn't have to do my workout at 5:30 in the morning! Plus, I had a handsome workout buddy. This kid pushes me for sure!



Tomorrow the actual meal prep begins. The Instant Pot awaits!

Day 41 of 80 Day Obsession

Here is my quick check-in for today - Day 41! We were on to Total Body Core again, with 10 reps and each set repeated immediately for three times. I've said it before, this is my favorite way of going through the reps. You really fatigue whatever muscles you're working on, and then move on to the next thing. This workout does work the core, but I really also felt my arms and shoulders today! This may have become my favorite workout of Phase Two. Unfortunately this Wednesday was not a refeed day - that happens only every other week. I rewarded myself with some new leggings for sticking with it through 40 days! Nothing like a new outfit to motivate you at 5 a.m., right? Post workout meal came out especially colorful today. Sweet potatoes, spinach and mushrooms, scrambled eggs, all sautéed in a little grapeseed oil. Add a small banana to it, and you have covered your yellow, green, red and purple containers, plus a teaspoon. Tomorrow is leg day again! I think t...

It's done! I've made it to day 80! Woot woot! Actually, it really went by very fast, and I've had so much fun with this program. It was just right up my alley. So much, in fact, that I'm starting round 2 in a week after a week of different workouts! The last workout day was Booty from Phase 2, which was, aptly named, a butt kicker. I didn't remember how heavy we lifted in the earlier phases! This last week gave us the option of doing carb cycling and adding in four deplete days in between our regularly scheduled meal plan days. I did okay with this until the fourth day, which became a bit challenging for me! I did have to have some rice that evening, I was getting shaky. But here is one of my somewhat random deplete day meals. Okay, now let's get to the before and afters! I'm really, really happy with my results. I'm down 11 lbs since day 1, 2 inches in both my waist and my hips, 1.5 in my thighs. I feel so much stronger, both physically and ...

Another workout down! Phase one Cardio Core is done for good. I did become stronger during these first four weeks, and while the standing mountain climbers are still hard, I made it through! I did feel good this morning and seemed to have a little extra dose of energy. Here are some snippets of the core sequence that happens at the end of all the cardio moves. I enjoyed my meals today! This doesn't include my pre-workout shake. Dinner happened a little late, but all the other meals were spaced out quite well for timed nutrition. Here I am with the evil sliders! Can't wait to see what phase two Cardio Core will have in store. Thanks for visiting! Contact me if you want to find out more about the workouts I do, the nutrition plan I follow or the shakes and workout fuel I drink! Please check out my link here:  Learn more
