52 Weeks of Eating Healthy – Week 1

For 2021, I am going to pull back the curtain and display what I eat in a typical week. For the last 9 years, I have been cooking all my meals on Sundays as I work about 30 minutes away from my house and am away for both lunch and dinner.

I put in 2-3 hours on Sunday afternoon cooking.

This week I am enjoying

Breakfast 1 – Raisin Bran and Kefir, coffee

Breakfast 2 – Turkey patties

Lunch – Shrimp Stir Fry

Dinner- Easy Anabolic Chicken Burritos

For snacks, there are mixed nuts, protein powder(Casein and Whey) mixed with milk and creatine, cheese and summer sausage.

The finished meals:

This is my off season, and I am running/biking/ swimming around 50-60% of my volume. My gym will be opening tomorrow and I will use this as a resource to lift which I will do 3 days a week. I plan on swimming two days, getting in around 1500 m each day. In season, I will try and get to the gym 4 days a week and get a mile in each training session.

I do not take cheat days, if I want a cookie or a sub or some other junk food, I eat it. I usually drink 3-4 alcoholic drinks a week.
