So I'm trying to use their meal planner but it's vegetarian and some of the items are hard to veganise so I'm just recording what I eat, and hopefully it will be a similar amount of calories :)
I bought healthy raw nuts, vegetables and fruits to snack on plus made my own hummus :)
Monday Day 1 - 1400 calories
Workout
Being President's Day I wasn't working so I didn't do my workout till 10am when normally I would do it in the afternoon.
I started with the first workout - Alpha Cardio and I have to say before this I thought I was pretty fit. What a joke - this workout was brutal but awesome. There was one girl doing an easier version too which was really helpful for when I wanted a break but it kept me moving.
The fact that the workout is only 25 minutes kept me motivated to finish when I wanted to give up and I hope by next Monday I will nail it!
They have 3 minute cool down afterwards too with stretches which I really liked.
I also liked the fact that you don't need much room to do the workout - I did it in my bedroom where I have around a 2 metre x 4 metre space.
Breakfast
2 pieces of gluten-free toast with 1 avocado and a sprinkle of Red Robin seasoning
1 cup green tea (caffeine free)

5 Sugar Snap peas with 2 Tbls hummus
