My Diet in Pics: Final diet tweaks for my bikini calendar shoot

image

Hey y’all!  Thanks for checking out my blog.  I just wanted to share what my diet will be pretty much from now up until my bikini calendar shoot in Jamaica (I leave in 10 days!!).  The most important thing I want to stress is that my diet isn’t about deprivation at all!!  Yes I am actually eating less calories than I normally would and yes I am reducing the carbs somewhat but have a look below and you will see that I am certainly not STARVING myself ;-). I am eating processed foods but I am choosing ones that are the most natural ones and I am eating organic (or farmers market, local) in most cases.  I think this makes a big difference in my skin especially to choose organic and higher quality processed foods as often as possible.  The less chemicals in it the better 🙂

As I said before I am not looking to come in super striated and skin tight for this shoot I am looking to come in looking lean and fit with some abs popping but not rock hard.  That is what I prefer to look like and what I am expected to look like for this shoot.  I have lost a few pounds over the last weeks and I have seen a noticeable flattening & tightening in my tummy which is exactly what I am aiming for.  In the last month I also have increased my cardio, added more sprints & plyo type moves, and switched my weight lifting from more heavy weights with lower reps to moderate weights with a 12-15/rep range just so you know overall what I do to prepare.  Now scroll down for my diet from now until Jamaica 🙂

 

Meal One: Egg whites, spinach, Black Forest bacon (that’s why it is extra dark lol), & goat cheese.

Meal Two: Quest protein chips and cucumber

Meal Three: Pistachios and plain pumpkin (warmed in microwave with stevia, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and a little fat free whipped cream-so good and pumpkin is good for your skin too!!)

Meal Four: chopped salad with turkey salami, turkey pepperoni, and balsamic vinegar (vinegar is really good for digestion and cravings btw-apple cider is usually my go to but balsamic has been linked to having the same benefits so use whatever vinegar you like!)

Meal Five: chicken sausage and Brussels sprouts

Meal Six:a full pint of Artic Zero cappuccino flavor and a full tin of dark chocalte cacao nibs (for sprinkles-yummmm!!)

That is it!  I also drink a lot of water, some coffee, & some green tea throughout the day.  Hopefully you found this interesting and informative.  My main goal of sharing is to prove that you can get leaner without starving or eating really bland & boring.  Be sure to check out my calendar photographer www.zuchphoto.com and my calendar sponsor www.peachbuns.com.  Check out my Instagram @sarahlinbrockner or Facebook Sarah Lin Brockner if you want to see my physique results from following this flexible diet.  I will start posting some pics soon while from Jamaica ;-). Thanks for reading and for all the sweet comments and messages I get from you all too.  I really appreciate it!!
