My Food Journal - The Week of September 6th
Nutrition | September 16, 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.

Zuzka, Who has been your inspiration over the past decade? I ask this because you seem to know what you want and don’t waste any time going after it. We all look up to you but the big question is….. Who do you look up to? Also, How do you manage your time so wisely? You seem to be a busy person but you always make time for yourself without excuses. How do you manage your time? What does your day look like? I love you and look up to you so much. You are my inspiration. Keep up the amazing work that you do for yourself and others 🙂

Thank you for taking the time to post your food journal every week. With all you already do, taking extra time to take pictures, organize, write, edit & post these food journals is not taken for granted.

Is there a way to make the chocolate protein oatmeal in the microwave or do I need a stovetop?

I make oatmeal in the microwave all the time.
1/3 cup oats in 2/3 cup water and microwave for 60 seconds. Then add the protein powder and whatever liquid, I use almond milk, you want to soup it up a bit.
