Glow Up Diaries Ep 26: My Workout Plan

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another episode of the GUD! In today's episode I'll be sharing my workout plan for the next bit of time. As always, enjoy and leave a heart!

My Workout Plan

In January I did Chloe Ting's two week shred from 2021. I don't have many days to workout now in college so I'm using workouts that are super effective and work the whole body. Check it out!

My Diet Plan

To be perfectly honest, I was super restrictive with my diet semester 1. I literally tracked everything I ate, every calorie and macro/micro nutrient and I had to write down everything I ate. It was so stressful for no reason. I'm focusing on intuitive eating this semester and I'm doing zero tracking whatsoever.

But here's what I've been eating lately!

a protein with each meal- like chicken sausage for breakfast, salmon, or chicken breast

greens of any kind- usually romaine lettuce but also green beans, broccoli, brussel sprouts

another kind of vegetable- carrots, cauliflower, mushrooms are common ones

some sort of starch or carb- usually brown or white rice but sometimes potatoes

at least one serving of fruit each day- pineapple, apples, banana, strawberries usually (trying to get up to two)

date bars and granola bars since I don't have time for breakfast in the morning

And I usually have a cup of coffee (or two), several bottles of water, and a bit of chocolate at some point.

Health goals for the moment

Although I am not calorie tracking, I am trying to maintain a calorie deficit so I can lose a little weight that I gained over winter break. Only a few pounds max. Because I don't really like the dining hall food and I walk so much here this is going to happen even if I don't try. So it's not something I'm really concerned about.

Also, getting enough sleep has been one of my biggest priorities lately! I've bene going to bed at a pretty good time every night and I'm proud of myself. I have a hard time sleeping in college though.

Well that's all for this episode of the GUD! See you next time!
