<\/a><\/p>\nHowever, one part of my offseason promise to myself was that I would work on cleaning up what goes in my piehole.\u00a0 Case in point – within 36 hours of the race finishing, I had eaten a burger and fries, pizza, and (unhealthy) mexican food.\u00a0 It was bad, y’all.\u00a0 I knew I had to get my shit under control or the severe lack of calorie burn would bloat me up real quick.<\/p>\n
Zliten was feeling it too and jokingly said he was going to just eat the penultimate (non-paleo\/non-low carb) diet meal of chicken rice and veggies all week.\u00a0 Well, I thought about it, and it was an interesting challenge to make that boring meal fun while still keeping it healthy.<\/p>\n
So, starting Monday, we did three meals a day of chicken, a rice product, and veggies.\u00a0 Snacks could be chicken, a rice product, veggies, fruit, or nuts.<\/p>\n
I also endeavored to:<\/p>\n
1. Not have more than 3 serving of rice products per day (not too many carby things even if they were rice things)<\/p>\n
2. Try to stick to brown or complex carb rices.<\/p>\n
3. Try to keep the sauce calories low-ish if possible.<\/p>\n
Here’s some of the food.<\/p>\n
I had a lot of salads.\u00a0 This particular one was from Whole Foods, but salads are great snacks and foods.\u00a0 Below was a chicken tzatziki + veggie wrap in a brown rice tortilla (I had that twice).<\/p>\n I also had some wine this week, and it made me remember, I really do quite like wine.\u00a0 I have been beer beer beer for so long, I forgot.\u00a0 And, it’s grapes, so it’s fruit, right?<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
