Food Munchin'

I have a certain time of the day when I get real hungry
A simple strategy for me is to eat something tasty, then have some dig in and munch food, followed by a change of taste.
I cook some (or have it pre-cooked) 93% lean beef in diced tomatoes (canned with onions and garlic) and add in a few more spices on my own...this is my tasty part.
When I'm hungry, I want VOLUME...
Volume could come from way too many almonds, or some unfavorable carb...
Instead I like to take a bag of sugar snap peas or a bag of green beans and sit down to munch...I don't serve it up...I munch it right outta the bag like it's a bag of (insert your favorite chip here)...part psychological, part hunger instincts...but by allowing myself to munch as much as I want it calms the crave long enough for...
My change of taste!
I'll have a fresh cup of Joe waiting for dessert...it's the perfect change of taste and cleansing of the palate I need!

Tuesday morning workout:
We had a different start this morning as we continued to dial in on hip function, core strength, and postural alignment in the deadlift. The modified deadlift is a wonderful movement that really targets the Glutes and Hammies!
We coupled our modified deadlift with some upper body strength on the rings...
The pace increased for our circuit but was fairly maintainable - A good day of working the basics in a no rest needed Stacey style workout!

Great suggestion Jerry! I'll keep in my for the future.. a bag of green "munchies."

I also love the product placement there too!

glad you liked it Adrienne - I know some will roll their eyes at the green "munchie" thing but ya gotta replace old patterns with something new...

Speaking of PP...what is the scoop on the "CrossFit Blend" Andrea?
