Wednesday 120125 Day 10 LiveFit Challenge

An oldie but a goodie, this is a repost of 110707

Nutrition Focus:
I love breakfast. I always have. When I was a kid (and teenager and adult) I loved to eat cereal! We didn’t get the “really bad,” “really sugary” kind (like Lucky Charms, or Frosted Flakes). I maintained a solid rotation between Crispix, Kix, Rice Krispies and the occasional Honey Nut Cheerios. At the age of 23 I had to have my tonsils removed. I became a HUGE fan of oatmeal during that time. Once my throat healed, I stuck to the oatmeal and didn’t eat cereal (as often). Afterall, oatmeal is so much healthier right? I remember when I started working out with a personal trainer, I told him how healthy I was because I ate oatmeal (rather than cereal) for breakfast every day. He immediately responded by saying “Oatmeal might be better than cereal, but it really doesn’t have very much nutritional value. You should eat some protein and vegetables with your breakfast, and with every meal.” Wait, what? Oatmeal isn’t a super healthy breakfast choice?!?! I was shocked!

Fast forward a few years, and my breakfasts have transformed from bowls of bland beige oats, to plates of colorful eggs, bacon, spinach, tomato, avocado, bell peppers, onions, salsa, and juicy delicious fruits.

Breakfast: Before and After

My breakfast now contains a lot more protein and fat which keeps me satisfied longer and helps fuel all the muscles I am developing at Crossfit 310.

I love to make my breakfast omelettes (or breakfast “scrambles” when the omelette falls apart). I love to cook breakfast, it is the one meal of the day I feel that I have mastered. If I know I won’t have time to cook something in the morning I will hardboil some eggs the night before or make some of JoJo’s Breakfast Cups the day before and refrigerate them and then pop them in the microwave the next morning. Maybe you don’t like eggs (are you a crazy person? Just kidding, it’s just that I couldn’t LIVE without them) or can’t eat them (I am very sorry if that’s the case), but you can still find something packed with protein for your first meal of the day.

So ditch the bland and beige (cereal, oatmeal, bagels, toast etc) and have a colorful and nutritious breakfast!

Tuesday 120117 Day 2 LiveFit Challenge

Day 2 LiveFit Challenge

You already have gotten links to three ladies’ blogs and Facebook pages who are wise women when it comes to living fit.  I have a HUGE long list I want to share of paleo sites.  But rather than paralyze you with information overload, I will start with just a few sites that I think are awesome and very valuable to learning about the paleo and/or primal lifestyle. 

Mark’s Daily Apple | Primal living in the modern world:  Stop number one for learning about a primal lifestlye.  If you haven’t already read THE PRIMAL BLUEPRINT by Mark Sisson, I highly recommend it.  Not only is it super informative, it is also a quick and enjoyable read.  READ IT!

Whole 9 | Home of the original Whole 30 Program:  Melissa (Urban) Hartwig, is seriously hilarious and has a totally rockin bod!  hmmmm, I guess that Whole 30 thing works.

Paelo Hacks | Have a question about Paleo eating/lifestyle/”side effects”/ results??  Well chances are somebody else has had that same question too.  Find it here along with the answers!  This website is awesome.  Search for questions that have already been asked, and answered, or ask your own here. 

Primal Palate | The food lover’s guide:  Great Recipes, including the famous grain free chocolate chip cookie recipe.  (Although minus points for those during LiveFit since they have chocolate = sugar.  But a cheat that you don’t have to feel too guilty about since they are grain free!)

So those are the sites I recommend checking out for now.  Especially if you are new to this whole way of eating.  Already seen those, or want more… click here for the full list, but don’t do it if it’s going to overwhelm you, make you stay up late, take the place of planning a meal, or make you late for your Crossfit class!  You’ve been warned!
