What I Eat In A Day! [Vegan] 3

Hey Everyone!

Here is another full day of vegan eating! I don't normally count calories or track macros but have put them together to give you an idea.

Breakfast

As always, I have a glass of lemon water to wake up my system and help flush out any toxins! I then enjoyed 3 yummy oranges and 2 pieces of roti!

- 460 kcal, 83.4g Carbs, 10.4g Protein, 12.8g Fat

Morning Snack

I enjoyed a bowl of frozen mixed berries!

- 140 kcal, 30g Carbs, 2g Protein, 1g Fat

Lunch

I made myself a bowl of barley (I like it plain!) and my favourite salad which included hemp hearts, chia seeds and some homemade Italian dressing. 

- 535 kcal, 84.7g Carbs, 25.5g Protein, 13.6g Fat

Afternoon Snack

Mixed Nuts

- 200kcal, 7g carbs, 5g Protein, 14g Fat

Supper

My favourite supper of all time is a chow mein inspired dish with tofu, rice noodles, mixed veggies and a homemade sauce!

Alright! That is it for the day! I was full from supper and didn't need an evening snack although I would like to start drinking tea.. Any suggestions for a fruity, caffeine free flavour?

30 Day Minimalism Challenge! - Day One

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all had an amazing holiday season with your family and friends!

January is always a time of reflection, self-evaluation and resolution making. I am always striving to better myself and the world I live in. One of my goals last year was to downsize and if you read my previous blog post ' The Beginning of My Minimalist Journey ', you'll know that my husband and I sold our house and moved into an apartment! Now, you can imagine the amount of stuff we got rid of! We have now been in our apartment for a few months and I can see that items are slowly creeping in, we have bins that are full in our storage room and everything is not as organized as it once was.

Well, I feel like there is no better day than today to do something about it! With the new items I received for Christmas and the old stuff that I am still hanging on to, I am going to to the 30 Day Minimalism Challenge! The way it works is that on day one you use/donate/sell/trash one item, on day two you use/donate/sell/trash two items, on day three you do the same with three items and so on. You continue this all the way up until day 30 where you get rid of 30 items! It's pretty amazing because by the end of it all you will have reduced your belongings by 465 items! Wow!!

At this point, on day one, I'm not so sure I have that many items left to get rid of but I am excited to see where this journey takes me! I will be using Marie Kondo's mantra " Does this item spark joy?" to help me along.

My one item today is a broken eye shadow brush that I've been holding on to so I could fix it! Well, it hasn't been fixed, it isn't bringing me joy and I have been using other brushes! Find me on Instagram where I'll be posting updates of the items I get rid of!

Let me know in the comments below if you want to join me in this challenge or if you have done it before!

Peace & Love!

Jules
