Speaking of the boyfriend,
I woke up to this beautiful rainbow in the fridge on Sunday morning.
I’d say I’m a lucky girl Winking smile
He knows how much I love to #EATARAINBOW; smart boy!

This #POWERPLATE was my PRE-WORKOUT fuel for LEG DAY!
Along with my GNC BCAA’s!

    *I was a sweaty mess and sore today!
    Definitely resting today – no workouts for powercakes!

    When I came back from the gym the boy, who was at a meeting for school,
    already had my asparagus waiting for me…
    Again, spoiled much? sheeshhh – he’s making me look bad! Winking smile

    I had the asparagus with a sweet potato topped with
    VEGA protein powder mixed with water & chia seeds to make a Frosting!

    I also sprinkled some cinnamon & coconut oil on top!

    I was craving a meal after working LEGS so hard
    and this totally did the REFUELING trick!

    Then we headed to the lake for a few hours
    & came back starving; so I, of course, made a rainbow!

    raw and roasted veggies, sundried tomatoes,
    avocado, & wild caught salmon with dill!

    Also, I’ve got a really good topic planned for my VLOG this thursday.
    It’s a pretty deep topic where I get a little personal about
    my personal struggle with food a few years back
    & my outlook on competing!

    Hope you’ll check it out later this week!

    I’m off to dinner with Mamacakes
    Then headed to a pretty cool business opportunity at a local University!

    Gosh, can’t wait to fill you all in on this Business stuff! Winking smile
