Every time I open up a new jug of protein powder of pre-workout I feel like I am embarking on an archeological dig to find the Scooped Scepter of Stimulus, or the Ethereal Cup of Proteinemus. I come away looking I was digging in the dirt, powder everywhere. There's got to be a better way, right?

Got a new snack for you all to try, Flackers. Ok, so I know the name is not that creative, but it really is a unique snack. Made solely from flax seeds, cider vinegar and some seasoning, Flackers is a macro powerhouse high in unsaturated fat, fiber and protein. They have a very satisfying crunch, and the flavor is just right. Perfect for a low carb snack at night, and they pair really well with dips like hummus or a low fat tzatziki. They come in 6 flavors including Savory, Dill, Rosemary, Sea Salt, Tomato Basil, and Cinnamon & Currant. . Give them a try and let me know your favorite flavor.

Keeping on the doppelgänger theme.....I was in Florida a few months ago and saw this guy at the gym. He was the spitting image of Walter, one of Jeff Dunham's puppets. He had that same scowl on his face and everything :-) . Btw....I felt like a total creeper taking the picture, but I just had to....you understand, right? . . .

On the menu this week: Baked Tilapia with lemon pepper seasoning, spiralized zucchini noodles, spaghetti squash, clam sauce with shrimp, and oatmeal crusted tilapia.. . To avoid meal prep burnout, keep all your sauces on the side so that you can mix it up during the week. I switch between the clam sauce and a Thai peanut sauce for my spaghetti squash and zucchini noodles. Also, package your proteins separate from the side dishes. This allows for variety as well as you can change up your sides from day to day. I often throw my fish on top of whole leaf spinach for a quick salad option. . Hope you are all meal prepped and ready for the week.

I ran into Albert Einstein's doppelgänger at Kroger today, or maybe it was the real Einstein. If anyone understood the theory of Quantum time mechanics, and could put it into practice, it was him. "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one" - Albert Einstein (at Kroger)

Did you know that bananas are low in calories and have no fat, sodium or cholesterol? Here are a few more fun facts about bananas: - Bananas contain vitamin C, potassium, fiber, and vitamin B6. . - Research shows that eating bananas may lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes, as well as decrease the risk of getting some cancers. . -Bananas are the only fruit to contain Tryptophan, which can help alleviate depression. No wonder why those little Minions are so happy all the time 😋 . - Are your bananas starting to turn brown on your counter. Peel them, cut them into chunks and toss them in the freezer. They are perfect to add to smoothies or to make banana bread later. . - Bananas can also be used to make flourless pancakes, which are both delicious and low in carbohydrates (see receive in previous post). . - Having trouble remembering how to spell banana? Listen to Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl"...you'll never forget 😜 .

Believe it or not, I get lazy sometimes. This week I was not in the mood to meal prep so I decided to go the easy route and take advantage of my convenience meal alternatives. . 1 packet Tuna Fish 1 cup microwave Minute Rice 1/4 cup cashews *optional* . Without the cashews, this meal is 410 calories made up of 44g protein, 42g Carbs, and 6g Fat. Adding the cashews will up the fat to 22g and 600 calories overall. . I get that this is not an exciting meal by any means, and many of you may look at it in disgust, but in a pinch it is an easy alternative to cooking. For me, sometimes food is fuel, not fun. . If you try it, I hope you enjoy it or, at the very least, tolerate it :-) .

There is a place that I go, to seek solace, to meditate, To work through the pain, through the loss, to silence fear and find peace, It is my church, it is my therapy, Where the hard iron creates a hymnal of harmony, I've grown stronger physically, emotionally, spiritually, I found myself here, I learned what I could do, and what I am made of. We all have our reason for being here, What's yours? (at LA Fitness)
