Well..partially transistioned…
Hi guys,
Here is a brief update on new way of eating, in which I do more beans, nuts, veggies, rice and cut out soy and tons of servings of protein powders and am eating a lot more!!
PROS: My stomach is NOT knotting from all the protein powder
Feel a lot more regular
Energy to train hard and feeling strong
Flexibility with meals and creativity
CONS:
more preparation
still experimenting with sauces/spices that are low sodium/low carb/ and no sugar that compliment meals well
need more water to help digest all the fiber in which I’m already drinking a lot of water so it’s hard to get it all in
need to be cautious to make complete proteins
OTHER INFO:
I’m probably only following it 70% right now.
I’m still in my craving stages since I’ve been dieting forever from my previous shows and have had a lot of Bad meals! I know- I know- bad bad girl. LOL. But I have been having homemade healthy pancakes, Apple Crisp, Stove top Popcorn every night(literally), Out to dinner (boca burger and sweet potato fries mmm), Different snacks I wouldn’t normally eat. Baked goods, ect.
I am planning on going 90% to Plan and having only 3 cheat meals a week and will continue with the update!
Also I just got Instagram FOLLOW ME amandawheeler89 !
But ya I’d also like to know how you guys are doing with your meals right now. Which foods are you incorporating and is there any specific eating patterns you follow you feel good on?

I hear you! Along the same vein, I’m trying to get enough plant protein, but need to minimize some items too! I have a moderate food sensitivity to legumes, so must skip at least one day between servings, so this includes soybeans! And I am hesitant to become overly reliant on protein powders. So, I do get in little portions of raw nuts, hemp & chia seeds, along with what I can get from quinoa, brown rice & I try to keep my veggie consumption to 4+ cups of greens such as broccoli, spinach & kale. So far my energy & digestion have been great.
