Recipes and more!!

Today was tough!!  Not going to lie about that.  Started the day exhausted as hell but decided to just perk up and make a yummy protein shake with a little bit of fruit to give my energy levels a little boost  My trainer decided to do Plyometric work today: squat jumps, push-up's, rotating press-up's etc. But, I pushed through even though I just about crawled out of bed this morning. 



Something strange happened after my workout today as well.  I didn't feel hungry as such but I was reaaaallly craving fruit. It was so weird, I was like the fruit monster lol.  Oh well, I guess it's just one of those things, I like it though :) I munched that mango like there was no tomorrow!! 




Tomorrow is going to be even tougher as I have Spin, Kettlercise and bootcamp.  I just have to make sure I have a shake and loads of water throughout the training sessions. Well, here are the recipe's for today's meals.  More to come so keep checking my posts xxx
