1,595 cal 154 grams of Protein Day

Full transparency: I most definitely have not been eating enough considering how much running I’ve been doing. But I’ve been struggling to eat as many calories as I should be so I’ve shifted my focus to eating foods that are high in protein.

This is just one day and not all my days are this good and that’s okay! What’s important is that I’m eating things that make me feel good and keep fueling my body in any way I can!

Please remember to eat today!

... Read moreEating enough calories and protein is crucial for anyone engaging in regular exercise, especially runners working toward goals like half-marathons. It's important to focus on high-protein foods to replenish energy and support muscle growth. Start your day strong with nutrient-dense breakfasts like egg whites, lean bacon, and whole grain muffins. Protein bars and shakes can serve as perfect snacks or meal replacements, making it easy to hit your protein goals throughout your busy day. For lunch, consider options like quinoa and chicken or wholesome stir-frys that incorporate a mix of vegetables. As dinner approaches, quick meals such as wraps filled with lean proteins (like buffalo chicken) can keep your diet balanced while satisfying your cravings. Don’t forget nutritious snacks like popcorners for a light evening treat. Integrating such foods into your meal plan helps maintain the desired calorie and protein intake while also enjoying a variety of flavors and textures. Make sure to listen to your body's needs, and always remember to prioritize healthy eating, no matter how hectic life gets!
