Posting what a full day of eats looked like for me yesterday.
The day started with my usual Built Boost taken with lots of water, probiotics and extra amino acids. During my quiet time there was coffee and LOTS of water!
As I was dressing for my run on the treadmill I sipped on my Built Go gel.
The run was medium today. It felt so hard. My body felt off. When I was done I needed some fuel immediately! Some days are just like this. So I quickly made a protein shake in my blender with a bit of coffee in it, ice and 1st Phorm Vegan Chocolate Mint shake. Along with the shake I had a Pumpkin Cranberry Muffin. Soon after getting ready I had some Pumpkin Frosted Mini Wheats with Unsweetened Almond Milk while sitting down to work at my desk.
About mid-morning I was thinking about dinner. Naturally! 🤣 I have been planning or Wednesday to be Brinner night (Breakfast for Dinner is always a win around here). I was thinking pumpkin waffles sounded good. I have some Bisquik to use up. I like to get dinner prepared as much as I can before. Especially Brinner. While Brinner is the easiest meal ever – it tends to be more of a chaotic meal. Timing the eggs along with the waffles is hard to get right in such a way that we can all sit down at the same time. Anyway, I decided to do up the batter and pop it in the refrigerator for later. If it gets too thick I will simply add a bit more of Unsweetened Almond Milk. In making up the batter I needed to try it for myself, right? So I made myself a couple of waffles for my second (or third? or forth?) breakfast – depends on what all you count as meals. 😉
Pumpkin waffles topped with raspberries and Walden Farms maple syrup.
For lunch I had spinach salad with some maple vinaigrette dressing along with an egg white, Vegan Queso crunchwrap and mini cucumber followed by a bar of JoJo’s Chocolate.
After lunch I had a mug of hot chocolate.
As a mid-day snack, I ate another Pumpkin Cranberry Muffin and two rice cakes topped with Pumpkin Cheesecake American Dream Nut Butter.
After this snack I was still feeling too hungry to wait until dinner, so I made myself a smoothie with half a scoop of 1st Phorm Mint Chip vegan protein powder, a few ounces of Unsweetened Almond Milk and 1/2 tsp of Xanthan Gum.
For dinner, I had an egg scrambled and two Pumpkin Waffles.
Before bed I had intended to eat a Pumpkin Spice Built Bar. I’m obsessed apparently. I know – pumpkin everything. However, I wasn’t hungry. Our dinner was later than we originally planned. So I just had a warm drink of NUUN and Oasis.

You eat so healthy! I’ll have to try a built bar. Seems yummy!
It’s definitely a balance! I do like to fuel well so I feel good. However, I am ALL about moderation!!! Built bars are the BOMB. Best protein bar (in my opinion :)).
