So I am 2 weeks away from bikini photo shooting in beautiful Punta Cana in Dominican Republic. My diet has changed up a bit. I am still eating roughly 40% protein 35% carbs & 25% fat daily but I dropped my calories a little bc I am not quite where I expected. What I do when I am cutting is weight myself daily (first thing in morning on empty stomach) then take the average for the week at end of week. This is NOT a good idea for someone who has disordered eating to do but I personally am not too tied to my weight bc I feel comfortable in my skin if I’m 10lbs bigger or 10lbs less. I can be subjective with what the scale says bc it is just a number and a gage to me. Self love takes a long time to develop in some people & I wasn’t always do casual with the number on the scale. If you are trying to cut & weigh ins can be an issue I suggest picture comparison & measurements bc those are very accurate no scale ways if seeing progress. I actually rely on these too along with weigh ins 😀
So anyways I am still eating a good variety of foods and do not feel deprived in any way. I have cut out any refeed or treat meals as of last week. I can eat plenty of refeed or treat meals in Punta Cana haha! I have lots of energy & can see more muscle cuts than last week so I should come in exactly where I want to. Keep in mind I am not looking to be all striated & cut up. I just want to see nice ab & leg muscle definition with a flat belly & to have my skin looking great. When I eat less healthy I personally can see it in my skin as it looks duller & sometimes breaks out a bit. By cutting out certain treats I usually allow weekly (candy, cupcakes, French fries 😜) it makes my skin look more glowing for my photo shoot too so that’s another reason I do a mini cut with healthy foods in mind.
So here is what I am eating this week. I bet you can’t even tell it’s actually 100 calories less than last week!
Meal One: egg whites, kale, toast, with grass fed butter & 2 cups coffee with a little plain cream and stevia (pretty much same as I have been eating!)
Meal Two: tuna mixed with coconut vinegar, salt & pepper, asparagus, and baby carrots
Meal Three: oatmeal with a little protein peanut butter on top & tons of cinnamon
Meal Four: Pizza omelette (egg whites scrambled with spinach and topped with low sugar pizza sauce, low fat mozzarella, turkey pepperoni, garlic powder and Italian seasonings. Place in oven until cheese melts then enjoy! So filling!!)
Meal Five: 1/2 a papaya with low fat cottage cheese
Meal Six: Cherry Almond Protein Ice Cream (1 scoop vanilla protein powder, frozen cherries, a little almond extract, ice cubes, stevia, and 1/4 teaspoon xantham gum all blended until smooth) topped with lots of sprinkles (love sprinkles!!!) & a cherry 😍
