@kaitlyn tomato paste is very concentrated (that’s why they are sold in small quantities). Most recipes just call for a few Tbsps max. So its odd the ketchup needs so much. I just used a few tbsp and it came out great.

@Sara yes, 8 total servings, enjoy!

[w_guardiola]

The recipe makes 8 servings

[w_guardiola]

I calculated the per serving quantities so that i could prepackage some of the items. Here’s what i came up with:
6g sunflower seeds
7.5g almonds
7.5g cranberries
1/4 cup quinoa
1/2 cup kale
3/4 Tbsp cider vinegar
1/4 Tbsp olive oil
Garlic – a smidge 🙂

Nevermind! It’s right, sorry, couldn’t figure out how to remove question.

[w_guardiola]

Eagerly awaiting a clarification on this. I hope the total macros are off as you suggested.

@sarahann25l The brand wild planet carries a skip jack wild tuna which it says it lowest in mercury. you may want to give it a try.

@freitas.family, the total daily macros is listed at the end of each meal plan.

[w_guardiola]

same issue here. I used sirloin steak beef loin boneless which went over in fat, so I skipped adding the butter.

[w_guardiola]

thanks for confirming.

[w_guardiola]

unless you win of course 🙂

[w_guardiola]

i feel the same. she did mention in her live Q&A how you can keep doing phase 2 if you haven’t reached your goal.

[w_guardiola]

I started prepping today and slicing open that spaghetti squash was a chore! Especially after chest/bicep day! Think I might try throwing the whole darn thing in the oven next time 🙂 Now I remember why I stopped making this evil vegetable years ago. Does anyone have any hacks for slicing one open more easily?

[w_guardiola]

Is a glass of wine allowed for cheat meal?

[w_guardiola]

I love it too! I’m never hungry and have tons of energy. I look forward to each workout, well maybe not HIIT 🙂 i feel so accomplished after each one!

[w_guardiola]

I turned down my hubsband’s dinner date request so I could stay on the plan. Thankfully he was fully supportive. Although, I’m already wondering what we’ll do for Valentin’s Day dinner. I’m thinking of delaying my refeed until then!

[w_guardiola]

Haven’t woken up starving yet (but I’ve been eating my last meal pretty late most days e.g. after 8pm, so hopefully the hunger part will still at bay! The satiety is the best part of the nutrition plan! definitely not feeling like I’m on a “diet”. But, I’m still in a calorie deficit since these workouts are murder, but I love them!

[w_guardiola]

thankfully I haven’t had any while on the program. But, prior to that, I found mints, breath strips or mouthwash did the trick (or brushing your teeth). Good luck!

[w_guardiola]

Thanks Maureen. I’ll stick to MP2. I just checked my FitBit, and I see that I still managed to be in significant calorie deficit for days 1-3, even with all the food! Woohoo! This is very exciting…lots of food, plenty of energy, pushing hard and a cal deficit to boot! You can’t beat that!

[w_guardiola]

Thanks Naomi. A massage would be heaven right now. I may need to research ART.

[w_guardiola]

you could always create a new account just for this group. thats what i did. not sure how brave I’ll be myself 🙂

[w_guardiola]

thanks lynda, i had just figured it out.

[w_guardiola]

just created my first account for this challenge. its rockabikinisomeday 🙂 although i cant figure out how to follow any one who’s not already on my fb or contacts.

[w_guardiola]

Yes, so sore indeed! I thought I worked out fairly “hard” before, but now I know I was just fooling myself 🙂 This plan is no joke. So looking forward to what results will come. Thank goodness tomorrow is rest day, although i still need to fit in my HIIT tonight. I hope my quads are ready again by Monday 🙂
