Hey friends !
I have been so sick since I got back from Paris. Jeez this flu is just not leaving me.
Paris expo was really massive fun! I met so many of my supporters and had interesting talks with some . I enjoyed giving advice and training tips to them! I cannot do what I do without these people in my life!
I have been real good with sticking to my diet though, no comfort eating. Green beans and fish does not help when you feel like this! Lol! Lifting your shirt to see abs does though!
Also got three days of training in, nothing hectic. Low intensity cardio and 3 sessions of weights!
This really bums me out, since I am /was really keen for a show soon. I'll have to watch my progress!
Anyways , take your vitamins guys ... These season changes are tough on the system.

QNT protein apple treat
This is ideal for when you crave something sweet and still want to keep it clean. Also it is perfect for post workout. Fuel those muscles!!! :)
I used a scoop of QNT delicious whey, added small amount of water and microwaved it for a few seconds until the protein thickened. Then chopped a Pink Lady (80g) and added it. Added cinnamon to taste.
