Meal 1
protein smoothie
I always come back to the banana and peanut butter option for breakfast. Bananas have that potassium and fiber and peanut butter is packed with healthy fats. Of course the protein helps to build that lean muscle too. It’s a great combination.
A protein shake is always a good choice for your first meal. It suppresses appitite and crushes sugar cravings. I’ve had quite a few clients replace meals with protein shakes and many have seen great weight loss results. It’s simply a must for an active individual.
Or
Health bar smoothie. We are open from early 6am-11am and 3pm-8pm. Pop me a text or watsapp if you would like your smoothie prepared ahead of time.
Ingredients
1/2 serving Wild Vegan protein (or any protein of your choice)
1/2 medium size banana
1 tsp peanut butter
1 tsp honey / 2 sachet stevia
12 blocks ice
1/2 cup almond milk
Dash of cimmamon
Blend all the above ingredients together adding a little water at a time as needed if it’s too thick.
ENJOY!!!

Snack 1
Carrots, celery and cucumber sticks with hummus 260g.
Woolies has on the on the go snack options but it’s very easy to make you own too. I’ve never tried before but If you decide to make it, please let me know how it turns out? You will find many easy recipes on the internet.
Hummus is made from chickpeas and has loads of benefits such as being rich in iron which helps with anemia. Lentils are rich in vitamin E and K that have blood thinning properties and naturally help reduce the risk of blood clotting. It also lowers cholesterol and reduces blood sugar 🙂
