For the LOVE of NACHOS

Happy #cincodemayo šŸŽ‰ 

Iā€™ve said it before, I wouldnā€™t do anything for a Klondike bar but I might do some shady shit for nachos & tequila. šŸ‘ŒšŸ» šŸŒ® šŸ¹ ā£

TIPSā£

šŸ’ŠTake digestive enzymes & GDA-Max beforehand to help digest food/carbs & minimize bloating. @nuethix_formulations is what I use, CODE: lilbitoffitĀ 

āŒBe mindful of trigger foods, high fodmap foods, sensitivities to certain spices, EAT SLOWLY & until 80% full

šŸ¹All pair well with grapefruit citrus @zevia & @patron Jus sayin. Tastes like a margarita without all the carbs & sugar. Other Zevia Recipes HERE.

šŸ—Eat primarily low fat proteins & veggies during the day to save the majority of your calories for flexibility (especially carbs & fats) for your special treatā£

šŸ’¦ Get in a good workout or increase your activity for the day to equalize calorie balance ā£

ā£ā£ā£

SET MACRO RANGES. Give yourself flexibility, if youā€™re not cutting for a fitness competition thereā€™s no need to be that strict. Create a larger deficit during the week to allow more flexibility. Determine what is nonnegotiable. If you want cocktails, drink them but have a lighter dinner, get in more steps. ā£ā£ā£

Example

HOW TO TRACK & LOG ALCOHOL ā£ā£

Take 1.5 oz of Patron

ā£ā£

ā–ŖļøEx. 1.5 would be around 103 calories (Or measure the calories in your alcohol of choice)ā£ā£

ā£ā£

āœ…Logged as CARB grams ā£ā£

103/4= or 25.8g of carbs youā€™ll add to your daily amount on @myfitnesspal ā£ā£

āœ…Logged as FAT grams ā£ā£

103/9=11.4g or 11.4g of fat youā€™ll add to your daily amount on @myfitnesspal ā£ā£

āœ…Logged as FAT & CARBS ā£ā£

103/2=51.5 

Carbs: 51.5/4=12.8g added to carbs

Fat: 51.5/9=5.7g added to fat

ā£ā£

ā–ŖļøThere are 4 calories/g for carbsā£ā£

ā–ŖļøThere are 9 calories/g for fats ā£ā£

ā–ŖļøAlcohol is 7 calories/g

Cheers to taco & nacho day (or any day that ends in Y šŸ˜‰), drink smart! ā£
