We’re in the second part of the 24 Day Challenge now. Today is day 14 and aside from food variances or leanness goals every day looks much like this. Catalyst and MNS-3 are my go to regulars for general health and well being. I view supplements as insurance against disease or illness. AdvoCare has s brilliant product in the MNS systems! The basics of multi-vitamin, multi-mineral, top quality EFAs, probiotics for continued gut health (your first line of defense and wellness) are all laid out for you in an easy to manage strip. Some vitamins and minerals need to be consumed on an empty stomach in order to be optimally absorbers. Some need food and fat. Do you know which is which and when to take what? The MNS system helps you out. Catalyst is an amino acid blend. I’ll write about that product separately. Regarding diet (food in general) from here to the end of the Challenge, the goal is to stay clean. Eggs, bacon, guacamole for breakfast as often as is possible. Lunch and dinner are a basic formula of meat plus as many vegetables as possible plus healthy fat. Anyone who says paleo eating is low/no carb is doing it wrong. #fitmom #munsonfamily #fitlife #fitover40 #advocare #24daychallenge #cleaneating #healthylife #glutenfree #grainfree #paleo #positivechanges #blog

Day 10 is off to a great start! Personal training done, conversation with one kid (the other is still asleep) and plans for the day down on paper. Old school. In the way of the 24 Day Challenge, everything started with probiotics and Cataylst (amino acid blend) which is followed later by fiber drink and an excellent breakfast made by the Man @m4munson! Eggs with salsa, bacon and half an apple. Let’s roll, Wednesday! #notricks #simplehealth #easyfood #motivation #guthealth #24daychallenge #advocare #fitover40 #fitlife #breakfast #paleo #blog

Day 9 of my 24 Day Challenge went a little sideways. I left the house at 7:30, got home by 11:40 but still had another hour before I could head inside to eat…breakfast. Yes, breakfast after noon. So probiotics when I got up but fiber drink didn’t happen until about 12:45 with half a small grapefruit and about 30 minutes later the last of the meat sauce from last week. Dinner was spicy chicken (I’ll get the recipe posted, Shannan!), string beans and a small-ish salad. No my food wasn’t evenly spaced out over the course of the day. Did I get it all done? Yes. Did I have issues with energy today due to this unplanned intermittent fasting? Nope. No dragging, no cloudy thinking. I was firing on all cylinders. A Spark in the morning (Green Apple) and a Spark in the afternoon (Pink Lemonade) plus clean eating and all is rocking! Tomorrow starts considerably earlier so there’s no telling when I’ll eat breakfast but it’s all good! One more day is left on the first part – the gut health phase – of the Challenge. #blog #paleo #grainfree #glutenfree #fitlife #fitover40 #advocare #24daychallenge #guthealth #munsonfamily #motivation #easyfood #simplehealth #notricks
