Welcome back Bloomers!

I am sure you all have heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Well I am here to tell you that you can make the most of your breakfast by adding in those carbs. I personally perfer to add my carbs in the morning and afternoon no later than 6pm. Morning carb intake assists with replenishment of carbs lost during the night. Consuming protein along with breakfast is a must. Add those carbs ladies and lets burn fat together! Below are a few of my favorite carb loaded breakfast meals.

Oatmeal Extravaganza

1 packet instant original oatmeal

1 cup vanilla protein soymilk

1 Tsp honey

1/2 Banana (sliced)

2 Strawberries (sliced)

1 Bottle water w/ creatine to wash it all down :D

Post-Workout recovery carb intake. Now that you have completed your workout it's time to load on those carbs yet again. Your muscles need carbs and protein for recovery and the muscle growth process. After a workout your body loses glycogen and glucose in which require replenishment. Check out some of my favorite Post-Workout meals/shakes below!
