Day 4 of our AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge went like this…Thursday’s are another early-ish start to the gym work. It’s not crazy like it used to be (hello, 5am!) but it’s an odd time for me to eat as I do not like to eat before being in the heat so the day is started with a probiotic and Pink Lemonade Spark as I head out the door. Fiber drink when I get home followed up with eggs with sautéed onions and bell peppers, tomatoes and guacamole. For lunch today, Alyx and I weren’t really hungry because our breakfast wasn’t until almost noon so we made a fluffed up Meal Replacement Shake – 1 Iced Lemon Cake Shake with added coconut milk, frozen mixed berries with 2 Mandarin Orange Sparks added (1 for each of us) plus two handfuls of ice. Blend it in the Vitamix, split between the two of us and done! Easy! For dinner, Matt made a veggie and ground turkey with ground beef pasta sauce. Zucchini, broccoli, yellow squash and onions make this sauce well rounded. No pasta, no bread. Super filling and there are left overs for tomorrow. I don’t know if anyone has noticed but the AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge is built around clean eating and simplicity. I love systems and theirs is simple. Any day is a good day to start treating yourself right. I’d love for you to join us! #itsnotthathard #whattoeat #bettereveryday #cleaneating #fitover40 #munsonfamily #24daychallenge #advocare #blog #healthylife #fitmom #fitfamily

Lunch on day 3 of our AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge is s decent sized salad. Lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, turkey breast and some of Texas’ own Brianna’s Chipotle Cheddar Dressing! Love it! On a side note…until I started documenting what all I’m eating I didn’t realize how big s part of my life the chipotle pepper has become. Interesting. #blog #advocare #24daychallenge #munsonfamily #fitover40 #cleaneating #bettereveryday #whattoeat #itsnotthathard #chipotlepeppers

Oh man! I do very much needed a snack. Ok. I didn’t really need a snack but that’s what my head said so I went with a half cup of grapes and some pecans. #easyfood #bettereveryday #cleaneating #fitlife #fitover40 #munsonfamily #24daychallenge #advocare #wellness #snack #blog

The start of day 3 of our 24 Day Challenge. Probiotics upon waking, fiber drink just before breakfast and then there’s this. Matt makes eggs for the four of us in one big pan then divvies up based on the person. Our girls are full grown adult size with one wanting to maintain and one needing to put some weight on. My goal is to lean up a bit but more importantly to get much cleaner in my diet as I’ve let things slide too much during stress. I get approx. 2.5 eggs with today’s being made with pico de gallo from last night’s dinner and a quarter of an apple. Let’s do this! #fitlife #easyfood #bettereveryday #spark #cleaneating #munsonfamily #healthylife #advocare #24daychallenge #blog

So here is my full day 2 food. I had things to do this morning and the girls were up to their eyeballs in school by the time I got home from work so we did a meal replacement shake which consisted of 2 chocolate meal replacement shake packs, 1 Tbsp almond butter, 1/2 C coconut milk and ice. Fast and easy!
Lunch was left overs from last night’s dinner – chicken breast and cauliflower plus some garlic and chipotle mashed sweet potatoes from Sunday’s dinner.
Dinner was home created chicken tacos with corn tortillas, rotisserie chicken meat, guacamole, pico de gallo, lettuce and a teeny sprinkling of shredded cheese.
I only had 1 Spark today and this afternoon I had a Biocharge. Tons of water (should say some liquid measurement but I don’t feel like it so…tons) and a sampling of watermelon and it’s off to bed with an herbal cleans and more water. Nite! #blog #advocare #24daychallenge #nutrition #healthylife #munsonfamily #fitover40 #fitlife #spark #cleaneating #noexcuses #bettereveryday #easyfood #mom

Oh my YUM!! We have a hit here! Lightly pan fried in bacon grease to get a slightly charred side. Then on a pan with roasted garlic and bell pepper seasoning (which I love, btw!) and sprinkled with Romano cheese. Then into the oven at 325 for 30 minutes. Holy cow! #homecooking #munsonfamily #recipe #blog #food #foodie #yum #snack

This is the flag that hung at CrossFit Champions while @m4munson and I owned it. It was a personal gift from our dear friend, Jim Mahan. It now proudly hangs indoors again at our new venture, Creekside CrossFit. Before Jim gave it to us he inscribed these words on the back. ‘Carried by SFC Jim Mahan on 256 combat missions in Iraq OIF 05-07’. I get misty every time I think about any part of where this flag has been before it came to us and in the time since it has been in our care. #patriotic #sacrifice #America #freedom #friends #munsonfamily #blog

So yesterday I’m prepping my garage for a training session when I notice a giant shadow zooming around the street in front of the house. Then this big sucker landed. That’s a mockingbird flying to the right of him. Two more joined this one a moment later. I appreciate the work they do. #suburbia #life #instaphoto #interesting #bigbird #blog #vultures #notjunglebookbirds #nosinging
