Again, my meals were pretty rushed today so I don't have any photos for you. I felt very tired before my workout and I think I am needing more substantial protein throughout the day. I am also interested to see how my Shakeology shakes affect me next week. Do any of you use protein shakes? If so, when should I drink them? What works best for you?

Another addition to my meal plan today was Chai Tea. Mom bought the Tazo K-cups for the Keurig. I needed this for a few of the recommended Shakeology shake flavors in the 21 Day Fix Recipe book. I want to try recipes that aren't just the powder and water but I don't want to use any other containers for it. Anyway - Chai Tea also has a lot of health benefits. 7 reasons can be found here.

I also cleaned up my Pinterest boards today while working at Heritage Pointe. I decided to delete all my boards associated with recipes (minus my 21 Day Fix board). I wanted to start fresh with new healthier recipes for the new year! 

On a scale from 1 - 10, I would say I'm about a 5 on the motivation scale right now. I really, really didn't want to work out tonight and I was annoyed when trying to make something for supper. I think I definitely need to make more structured meal plans similar to the first week because I felt better and fuller. I'm almost 2/3 of the way through this fix, so I know I can finish I just hope I find motivation to keep going after it's over. I also haven't decided if I am going to participate in the Doubles Workout week next week. It'll be tight getting two workouts in some days, but I figure any extra would be helpful so I will have to see.

This post is really random, but I have one last thing for the night. I have a few new recipes planned for supper tomorrow night while watching the Superbowl! I will be sure to post about how they turn out and the links to the recipes. 

Here's some motivation to end this rambling nonsense!
