Since starting clean eating 5 weeks ago, not only have I lost 5kgs, I am also feeling a lot healthier and have more energy. (I have also increased the amount of exercise I have been doing but I will cover this in another post). The best thing about this clean eating diet is that I never feel hungry.
My typical day consists of:
Upon waking:
- glass of water with a squeeze of lemon juice (this is great for kickstarting your metabolism)
- 45 minute walk - I get up at 5am to get this done before my daughter wakes up and before my husband leaves for work so that he is here to tend to her if she does wake early. If not, I am fortunate enough to have a treadmill so I can do it at home, however I do like to get out in the fresh air if I can.
Protein Shake - this keeps me full until lunchtime although I do have a small snack at morning tea to help keep my metabolism going
- 50g of oats blitzed to a fine powder (I use my Thermomix)
- 2 scoups of protein powder (I use BNRG Pepti-1 Ultra Burn)
- 1 cup of water
- 0.5 - 1 cup of frozen mixed berries
- 2 tbs natural greek yoghurt
- handful of ice
- Blitz in Thermomix or food processor for 1 min....Delish!
- small amont of almonds or brail nuts (no more than will fit on three fingers)
- Clean sausage rolls with salad (recipe to follow in future post) or meat and salad
- 150 - 200g Natural Greek Yoghurt
100-150g meat with veges - usually a stirfy however sometimes I try and get creative and turn regular meals (eg spaghetti) into clean versions (I will also blog about this at a future date).
If I have time I might try and squeeze in a short (20min) afternoon workout while my daughter is playing in the yard.
For more information on clean eating, I recommend checking out the Ashy Bines Clean Eating Plan.
I've just made the clean sausage rolls out of the Ashy Bines Recipe book and I've had all sorts of trouble rolling them. Do you have any tips??!!
