3 MMM’s Day 2

I know it’s going to be a good day when I can do this post early in the day. I love a good morning routine that’s full of all 3 M’s, setting me up for success!

MINDSET: gratitude meditation in front of red light upon rising - so much to be grateful for 🙏🏻

MOVEMENT: 60 min Pump Class (weights) at 6 AM followed by sauna 🥵 and cold shower 🥶

MICRONUTRIENTS: worked up an appetite 😋 - had my favourite post workout breakfast when I have to get to work and don’t have time for a cooked meal or ability to sit down (for long) - DFH chocolate protein shake and buckwheat sourdough toast with ghee and nut butter with hemp seed sprinkles. So satisfying and hits perfectly, keeping me full until lunch. This is my go to breakfast often, so I’m really curious to see what a CGM monitor reads 🩸. My body tells me my blood sugar is balanced with this quick and easy meal.

*personal note/lesson * - I used to feel guilt for having toast for breakfast (gluten free, organic sourdough) -always adding protein too! — I was thinking it was too many carbs for me. When I would skip the toast (especially after a workout) I was starving by 10:00 AM looking for snack, I ate more at lunch and dinner and was hungry in the evening looking for another snack. Once I made the connection that if I allowed myself the toast (honestly my favourite food in-terms of feeling comfort and satisfied) I was full until lunch, didn’t need snacks and my blood sugar feels more balanced throughout the day. I’m never hungry after dinner (I tend to eat early and then fast in the evening) and I have no cravings for unhealthy foods. All because I allowed myself to have a piece of toast that I enjoy so much and nourishes my body at the start of the day. ☀️ 💡 moment 😅
