My Food Journal - The Week of August 22nd
Nutrition | August 31, 2016
I did my best to keep a good record of what I ate for the past week. I did not try to make the photos pretty (sorry for that), I just snapped a quick shot to document my own diet.
You can still use my own Food Journal as a template for your own weekly meal plan, but I really suggest you eat according to your own body-type.
I’m a mesomorph – athletic and muscular so I don’t have to always earn my carbs with a workout although I like doing that anyways because I tent to gain weight easily.
If you’re an endomorph – your body stores more fat and your goal is to get leaner or lose weight. You should definitely earn your carbs with a workout.
If you’re ectomorph – skinny, with very little muscle mass, then you don’t need to earn your carbs with a workout as long as those carbs come from natural sources like rice, potatoes, quinoa, whole grains, etc.
We should all exercise daily and avoid added sugar and junk food if we want to stay healthy and strong. If you do want to eat sugar and junk here and there, then at least earn it with your workout even if you’re naturally skinny. It will help you avoid lifestyle diseases such as diabetes.
Nutrition Guide with more info here.
FM – Free meal that you can eat at any time of the day regardless of your body type
WEM – Workout earned meal, or a meal you should earn with your training if you’re either an endomorph or an endo–mesomorph (athletic person who gains weight easily).
DRINK A LOT OF WATER! I have a 800ml glass bottle that I refill 3x a day to make sure I drink about 2,5l of water every day. If you’re having a trouble to drink plain water, you can always flavor it with fresh lemon juice.
These are my supplements: Supreme greens, glucosamine, essential fatty acids, and my pre-workout protein blend with a natural fat burner.

I will ask again the same, cos I don’t understand the principle..
For example, Monday, Tuesday Z had coffee, HIIT and right after the workout lunch? Or is it just not important the post-workout meal.. I d b grateful to know this because I do my workouts in the morning and although I don’t feel hungry normally afterwards I don’t know whether I should eat smth with protein or I don’t have to..
Thanks!!

You dont have to eat if you are not hungry!! I usually work out between breakfast and lunch, but I’d never eat sth inbetween, I just couldnt 😀 you can have a protein shake perhaps, but what’s the point if you feel stuffed after. I dont even have breakfast sometimes before a workout. I used to force sth down, and in the end I was nauseous. So sometimes I just have coffee. Listen to your body, it knows what to do.

My botanical fat burner supplement is not available yet. I’ll be selling it soon in my online store and I will include all the recipes there. I usually include links to the recipes if they’re already on the website, if they’re not, they’ll be posted in the near future.
