My Daily Diet

As an avid YouTube watcher and blog reader, I love to know what other people eat in a day. I see it as a great way to get ideas for meals or to find new ways to switch it up my own diet.

I am a big believer that everyone needs to find a diet the complements their own lifestyle. For us, like we mentioned in our food philosophy post (here), we try to find balance. Our daily meals consist of

• High protein (approx 140g of protein) because we do lift weights 
• Lower on carbs and higher in fat because we sit in an office all day (approx 150g of carbs & 50g of fat)
• Plenty of fruit and veggies in every meal to include fiber and vitamins
• Almost everyday eat something sweet because we LOVE chocolate and pastries

Meal 1 (Breakfast): I bought a green smoothie with kale, banana, apple and whey protein.  

Meal 2 (Snack): Justin's peanut butter packet, an oranges and passion fruit orange tea

Meal 3 (Lunch): A salad with kale, spinach, dill, feta, avocado, tilapia, and lemon as dressing

Meal 4 (Snack): Kind double chunk bar 

Meal 5 (Dinner): Tuna cakes made with sweet potato (a recipe here) and side of steamed broccoli
