What I ate Wednesday!

Welcome to What I ate Wednesday!
Today I will be sharing what I ate throughout the day. Honestly I have not been eating as well and as healthy as I normally do. Today I wanted to start getting back on track and decided to document everything that I ate. Minus the snacks which honestly were not too interesting, just one apple & one granola bar.I hope you guys enjoy!

I need coffee to start my day!

Okay so most of us should know the best way to start our day would be with warm water & lemon, but what can I say I love coffee. Starting my day with a warm cup of coffee, dash of creamer & almond milk.

Breakfast, I'm usually on such a rush in the morning so it helps out to throw whatever fruits I have available & take a smoothie to drink on the go. For today's smoothie I had tons of fruit available, I did 1 cup of almond milk & 1 cup of water, added strawberries & blueberries a banana & some dates, and cinnamon & yum delicious.

Lunch!!! is not too glamorous , by this time I was already craving other foods, but I prepared my tuna salad with goals on my mind the night before. For my tuna salad I just shredded some lettuce, mixed my tuna with salt, pepper & lemon, added corn, cucumbers & jalapenos. I was day dreaming about those wheat thins, thinking I had a lot left which ended up being only crumbs oh well. Try this delicious & easy salads which is also budget friendly.

Time for dinner, okay can you tell I work full time & love throwing foods together, to be honest I love going back to basics when i'm trying to eat healthier. I meal prepped the chicken yesterday and today after work made side of mashed potatoes ( potatoes smashed with spray butter salt & pepper) side of veggies & black beans. The night time cravings and struggle is real I wanted a donut but instead I had a huge glass of water. Today was only the first day back trying to cut out all the junk foods & eating out, I will get better with time & the cravings will start to fade away stay strong, summer is just around the corner !

Thank you so much for checking in today, I will be trying to upload 2-3 blogs a week.

Stay beautiful

Stay hydrated with 3 easy recipes

Hello my beautiful friends! I have talked about the importance of water in previous posts & how I keep up with my water intake. Believe me i'm not perfect with water intake there's days where I forget or just not too interested in drinking plain boring water. This is why I love to plan ahead and purchase 3 ingredients that make delicious infused water. All you need is berries, lemon & cucumbers. If you guys haven't had infused water you are missing out, it will make your water have so much flavor & it just feels so refreshing. There are great benefits of having infused waters as well. The biggest benefit I have seen is just since it looks pretty & it has a taste I actually tend to drink it more thru out my day. I would love to share with you guys how you can mix & match these ingredients and make different combinations with great benefits. You can defiantly get fancier than this but this is what works for me because its easy to make, with ingredient...

I just wanted to update you guys on how its been going for me. I have to start by saying this program is amazing, I have learned so much about portion control & seeing food in a different way. I promise every time I see someone's plate I think about what portions it is & what container it belongs in. The first two days I think were hard for me. I felt a bit hungry & lost through out the day. I was not enjoying the foods that I was eating much & I was having too much salads.

So here's 11 things I've learned on my 21 day fix journey ! FYI. My diet consists of 3 gree...
