More Fun Food Photos
Last night we did some intense training. I finally made it back to my yoga class. It was an hour and 15 minutes of pure... intensity. I am terrible at downward dog!! I can't believe I have great upper body strength and no tolerance for downward dog. Boo! I spent all year last year working on it and now after a mere 3 months hiatus I am back to where I started. I guess that just means I have to practice harder.
After that I came home only to break my relaxation with a really intense biceps and triceps session. We did 10 set of biceps and 10 sets of triceps. I was definitely grunting. My arms are hurting this morning.
Here are some shots of my breaky.... oatmeal (with all the fixings), black coffee and water. I already had my wheat grass drink this morning. I started preparing some homemade tomato sauce last night. Here it is boiling on the stove with my eggs next to it. I also have a shot of all my breakfast fixings on the table... Ezekiel cereal, flax, bee pollen, wheat germ, Chia seeds, rice milk, etc. etc.

I LOVE YOGA!!! I do it every single morning, and find that it's a wonderful component to my strength-training routine - helps me to stretch out my sore muscles :-)
Love the breakfast!!
Tosca,
I started taking bee pollen after reading about it in "Clean Eating" and ever since, I noticed a nice increase in energy!" Thank you for writing about it. I would have never known otherwise =)

Tosca, how many reps were in those sets? My biceps are the weakest part of my body and I have such a hard time with that. I can't imagine 10 sets. wow! I wouldn't be able to lift my arms after that... lol GREAT job!!

Tosca, I am going to be training for a marathon this spring but still want to follow the clean eating plan, as well as weight train 2-3 times per week. DO you have any suggestions to help keep me fueled while dropping body fat at the same time?
I'm a sucker for food photos!
I love your breakfast & plan on starting this myself.
My eyes got buggy when I saw 10 sets! Guess that may be what I need to do. I seem to not be able to advance in the bicep area at all!
i do 4 sets of 12-15 with 10 pound db on a 45% bench (bi isolation) and that is killing my bis for days...., still don not see results!???! or just tiny one...sooo how do u do 10 reps? what weight? and btw that breakfast looks sooo delish..hmmm...I put cocnut oil and almond butter and goat whey prot powder in my oatmeal, but planning to try the bee pollen. how much do u put in ur oatmeal?and do u think it is too much to put coconut oil and almond butter in mine?

Tosca, where do you find Clean dried fruits such as cranberries? Most of the varieties I find in the stores are sugar-laden. Are the ones sweetened with fruit juice any better?
Hi Tosca,
When is the more apporite time to eat friut?
It wouls seem that veggies sustain our blood sugar highs and lows better..and with fruit they would drop fast. Okay to use a banana with bluberries and protein powder for post work out?

as a fun photo idea, how about pics of your fully stocked fridge and pantry?!
Tosca, where do you buy your bee pollen? I have done some research on the internet and want to make sure I am buying high quality. I read you should not buy from China and most stuff sold in the USA is from China. I just want to make sure that what I have read is accurate. Thank you for the inspiration to eat clean and be healthy!
How does one make clean eating tomato/spaghetti sauce?
