“I don’t track Macros I’ve been doing this so long I just eat intuitively. I hit about 115-130g of protein Daily and have really enjoyed moderate carbs moderate fats lately a good combo of both.,” she wrote. “Breakfast is usually just fats and protein unless I have an English muffin , wrap or oats. Pretty basic most days lol, I’m not a huge Veggie person so on days I don’t eat them I’ll Drink my Greens supplement (Greens Supreme Fusion). Post workout Protein and Banana a staple for YEARS I’m talking Atleast 15 years lol I’m using Titanium Whey (chocolate Graham Cracker) also @sannation . I use about 4oz of Organic whole milk 🤯😀 Top sirloin and chicken for my last two meals I’m more of a potato person and honestly I feel like my body just responds better to potato’s ! I like to end my nights with some Fats whether it’s almonds, almond butter, cashews or macadamia nuts.”
