For breakfast, I wanted something on the sweeter side. And so I made myself a ricotta toast with berries and flax seed. It's on keto bread, too, which I am just trying. M I've been in a big ricotta phase. I know everyone is on the cottage cheese train, but once I discovered ricotta and how versatile it is, I actually prefer ricotta. I just wanted something relatively light before I head into my workout later. My coach on train well gave me something very strenuous and long and I hate it but I love it. I like the fact that my most challenging workouts are on Monday so that the rest of the week is just downhill.
I'm having chicken fur with shirataki noodles. This looks really, really delicious. Okay, I'm going to have a little bit of a chicken first. M. That's so good. This is like the best tasting shiakei noodles I've had. I was like literally wondering why these sherakei noodles are so good. It's because they're not shiataki noodles. They're they're they're sweet potato noodles. That makes a lot more sense. I was like, "Dang, this is the best texture." No, no, no. These are sweet potato noodles, which are delicious. That was so good.
For dinner, I made myself a very quick basil pesto pasta. I decided to go for chicken as my protein and some steamed broccoli, of course, cuz you know, you got to add some vegetables, you feel me? I like to get that pesto sauce at the farmers market. One of these packs usually lasts me a week and a half, so it's always nice to have on hand. Good morning. On this very gloomy day in LA, I decided to make a locks pesto toast. This looks delicious. M. I love buying smoked salmon because then I can control how much smoked salmon that I want. You know, when you go to a cafe,
they're really stingy with their smoked salmon slices. But at home, you can pile on as much as you want. So, I have parked in front of my gym and I'm just kind of going through my workout for the day. It's been 2 years since I've been using Train Well, and it's probably the most consistent I've ever been to any fitness program. Also, huge thank you to Train Well for sponsoring this video and for keeping me in the best shape of my life. Never did I think at 34 I would love my body the way it is. I'm still on a custom plan with my coach Heidi and I recently did a checkup call just to go over my new goals. Essentially, I just want to be as strong as possible because I want to keep up with my growing sun.
Using Train Well has been so unbelievably intuitive. Every day I just open up Train Well and my workout for the day is right there. It's loaded, ready to go. It's different every single day. And this really works for me because I love not having to think while I'm at the gym. I just want you to hold my hand and tell me what exercises to do and for how long.

is it something for me to do? I now have a new found respect for people who make their own spinach flatbreads. That was so difficult. The YouTube video made it look so easy. Like I had an expectation of what it would look like. This definitely has more of like a tortilla consistency. For the inside, I mixed chicken with ricotta and Sriracha, right? Instead of mayo, why not use ricotta? It's so neutral.
And then I topped it with some onions. Okay, let me try and fold this. Okay. Hey, it kind of looks like a little taco. I don't think I'm ever going to make these spinach flatbreads again, that's for sure. But the filling I can get down with. M. The bread is fine. It's just so unbelievably dense. It almost feels like I'm eating some sort of clay. I felt a little disappointed with my lunch. It was so much effort for not much payoff. I made myself a very, very hearty dinner. So, on top of a fresh bed of rice, I added all the veggies around the corners. Then, I plopped on the ground beef and then I topped it off with our green onion sauce. I had to just go for
a triedand-true for dinner. That lunch was an abomination. Love how the sprouts still have their crunch. I'm so full that I actually think I need to go on like a 15-minute walk just to make this shake down, if you know what I mean. For brunch, I decided to repurpose the leftovers I had. I didn't want it to be like an exact replica of yesterday. So, I wanted to get a little creative and try and make a rice. All right, let's give this a go. M. Mhm.
For dinner, I wanted to use my cabbage head. I feel like cabbage is the vegetable to use if you want to stretch out any food, including eggs, or I guess especially eggs. So, yeah, I made a little cabbage alma rice and I adorned it with some broccoli. For some extra flavor, I used that sauce that we made, I think, like 2 days ago. And voila, dinner is served. I'm actually really excited to eat this. M. Oh, that's delicious. Do you think I should call this a cabbage omelette or a cabbage pancake? This is really hitting the spot, y'all. It's so good. Happy Thursday, everyone.
It is upper body day, and I'm actually really looking forward to this workout. Primarily because it has push-ups. We've come a long way because before when I would see push-ups, I'd be like, "No." But now I'm like, okay, how many can I actually do? I remember when I first started my program, I would max out at 10, but now I am clocking up to 15. I feel like that's the amount where I actually start shaking a little bit. It's really cool seeing and feeling my body getting stronger. I know.
I love This is my chicken ricotta mixture. I threw in an onion and I slapped it on this really yummy toast. Topped it off with some everything but the bagel seasoning. How delicious does that look? Let's have a bite. I'm telling y'all, you have to try this mixture. M. You know those little small sandwiches you get for afternoon tea? This feels like the type of sandwich that would that would be on there. When I was on my call
with Heidi, my trainer, she also wanted to stress the importance of nutrition. It was a great reminder for me to really focus on more protein so that I feel more satiated throughout the day. And I know there's already a lot of protein in chicken, but when you throw on the ricotta, it adds like an extra boost. So, I feel like I'm making Heidi double proud because I got my workout in and I feel like I'm putting a lot of goodness back into my body. I did a little bit of a spin for lunch. This is my steak soba curry. This is my first time making it. I definitely knew that I didn't want to make rice, so I thought soba noodles are quick. This looks absolutely delicious. I'm excited.
I'm going to take a bite of the sirloin steak first. Oh man, it's so good with the steak. I think this is going to be the best lunch I have for this video. M I'm so glad I have like a bunch of the curry and the steak left, too. So, I know that this is probably going to be good for dinner at some point. M.
I think kimpup is one of the best ways to clear out everything in your fridge, including the chicken ricotta mixture. I was like kind of going for like a Philly roll, you know, where it's like more creamy. But yeah, this is definitely a fusion. And I'm really excited to eat this. All right, chamokida. Ooh. And it's definitely got quite a kick to it.
Good morning everyone. For breakfast, I made a cabbage omelette sandwich. The omelette was quite big, so I trimmed the edges and I arranged a little omelette rose. Of course, I had to use a little bit of ricotta just to see what it tastes like. This looks delicious. Let's have a bite. M. It's very good, but it needs a little extra oomph. So, I'm adding some Sriracha. M. Okay, there she is. Oh, that's phenomenal. With my omelette rose, I'm going to need to dip some Sriracha in it as well. M. I just love the crunch the cabbage adds to the eggs. M.
Mhm. I am just getting ready for my final workout of the week. It's going to be lower body day. This is probably my favorite workout of the week. So, let's go smash it out. This is tragic. My AirPods are not connecting. I need to work out with music. I'm going to have to work out with no For lunch, I decided to cook farro. It is one of my favorite grains. It's like rice but with some extra texture. I thought it'd be a perfect base for the curry leftovers I had from yesterday.
All right. Oh my god, this looks so good. I'm excited. Okay, I'm going to go with the steak. M perfection. I'm going to make myself a little bite of everything. As I suspected, farro is a perfect base for this dish. For dinner, I'm at a very special place. I'm at Ashley's house. We're having sushi. It looks so delicious. She ordered from Katsuya, which is one of her favorite Japanese restaurants. Thanks, Ashley. Cheers. Bunch of snacks. Mhm. M. This roll. All right, guys. That is the end of this video.
