What I Eat In A Day

Breakfast

During the week, I usually stick to a smoothie before my workout because it's quick and easy. But on the weekends, I'll make protein waffles! The macros for my protein waffles are 30g of protein, 28g of carbs, and 2.3g of fat (that includes my toppings of fruit and a sauce made with powdered peanut butter). The protein comes from protein powder and powdered peanut butter, the carbs come from flour, fruit, and peanut butter. The fat comes from powdered peanut butter.

Post-workout

After a workout, you want to make sure you have a snack/meal that contains protein and carbs. My favorite post-workout meal is a protein shake over cereal (25g protein, 30g carbs, 9g fat).

Morning snack (not pictured)

Mid-morning (or later on the weekends because I get a later start) I have another snack focused on getting in protein, carbs, and fats. I like to have egg whites over home fries cooked in the air fryer with cheese or avocado (33g protein, 27g carbs, 16g fat).

Lunch

I usually have leftovers or something I meal-prepped like this turkey zucchini skillet. Plenty of veggies and a good size serving of protein! The macros for my turkey skillet are 27g protein, 22g carbs, and 1.5g fat.

Afternoon snack (not pictured)

Cookie dough built bar (15g protein, 17g carbs, 3g fat)

Dinner

My dinner was from a meal kit service local to my area (kind of like Blue Apron or HelloFresh). I had pesto chicken with pasta salad (36g protein, 29g carbs, 19g fat).
