“I made a mixture of squash bell peppers extra lean ground turkey 32 g of cottage cheese and beans. I like this meal as its very lean it has a lot of high-quality proteins. Its also pretty filling and low-calorie. I didnt struggle with the meal but I am struggling in general. This last weekend I did not feel like I was focused on my nutrition and its caused my weight to go up a little bit. Which I will log my weight Wednesday for review. But I am just really frustrated with myself and feel like Im trying to get back on Super focus.”
