Hump Day Routine

Now that I am getting back into my normal every-day-routine, I want to start sharing my daily meals and exercise routines with you.

On Monday, I did go back to the gym, but can't say that I ate super clean (covers hand over face). My fiance has friends in from out of the country, so you know what that means.... lots of dinners and what not! I do try and eat as healthy as I can when going out for dinner, but since the summer is over, I will treat myself to that extra piece of bread here and there.

Today I brought an organic banana for breakfast, grilled chicken with quinoa for lunch, and pretzel crisps with hummus for a snack if I get hungry a little later. I have a long day ahead of me, and probably won't be able to eat dinner until around 8:30. My gym routine will consist of boxing tonight, so that is about 60 minutes of HIIT. If you live in New York City, walking everywhere is usually the best option. The boxing gym is about 24 blocks from me, and since the weather is still nice out, I usually like to walk there and back, totaling 48 blocks =).

Since I won't be eating dinner until later, I am just going to make myself 2-3 scrambled egg whites, and a piece of wasa bread with organic peanut butter.

I absolutely HATE eating late at night, and it is so bad for you. That is how you gain weight. You are not giving your body enough time to digest before bed.

Tomorrow I will be going to the gym to do some cardio and weight training. For dinner I will either be making zoodles, or my cheesy zucchini bread.

Over the next couple of months, my main focus will be getting to/sticking to a weight that I feel most comfortable at, and toning up as well.
