Full Work Week of Eating - Plant Based/Vegan
I get asked soooo often, "Well, what do you eat???!!!" I will be honest, sometimes I freeze and don't know what to say b/c I enjoy things that are not on the average radar (like tofu and seitan), but then there are some foods we ALL have been eating our entire lives.
I track my macros and work with a coach (let me know if you want more info on either of these things!). In a nutshell I do not count calories, instead I track macros. This means I have a goal to hit a specific amount of protein, carbs, and fat daily. This formula is different for everyone, but has been GAME CHANGING for me!
I want to give you an idea of what I eat during a normal work week - and remember - I take clients out to eat quite a bit. Being vegan is EASY!
I meal prep just like the average person so you will see quite a few repeats so I could use things up in my fridge! That's what we all do, right?! I also feel like sometimes I go without protein powders for days at a time, but then there are times when I need a quick meal (or just more protein to my macros). This week has a LOT of repeats (even the client meals!) and quite a bit of protein powder smoothies so it is pretty boring, to be honest! lol
