MEAL TIME
This mornings lift was challenging and I had to go light on the weights, but I finished feeling super energized! Immediately after I drank my post workout protein shake. Yumm chocolate muscle gain and banana. Luckily I was able to make it home from the gym just in time to feed my munchkin! After she finished I ate meal 2 of 6. Chicken and brown rice.
Now that my first lift is complete, I am super excited to start training for my next Bikini competition. So, I am giving myself 12 weeks to prep for the Excalibur in December. I am very excited to go back to clean eating, starting my breastfeeding safe Advocare Products and lifting on a daily basis! You can follow my journey through this blog!
