Today was a 'rest day' for me training wise however on my rest days I still like to keep moving with the light stuff (hence the technique session). It is important to know when your body needs a rest, because if you over train it can do more harm than good. I don't have set rest days I just know when my body needs it. Due to a minor head cold I have picked up, today I knew I needed a rest.
Despite being tired and craving carbs I had another successful day with my diet. Here it goes...
Breakfast: Steak size of my palm, Fried green veg (1 cup), and 1/4 of an avocado.
Snack: 15 Almonds, 2 Rice thins, 2 Tablespoons cottage cheese.
Lunch: Kumara and Coconut soup (see recipe under the recipe tab), handful of fresh shrimp, and 1 cup of green beans.
Snack: Kiwifruit, 2 tablespoons of stew
Dinner: Steak and Veggie stew (made in the slow cooker this morning). Flavoured with 1 tablespoom cummin, 2 fresh garlic cloves, half a fresh chilli, sweet basil leaves and half a medium kumara.
Here are some photos to share (sorry about the quality of the previous ones, I had been adding them through the blogger App on my phone).
