It’s the weekend! That means one thing. SLEEP IN! Well that’s usually the plan but my insomniac self who is now used to just basically napping in between Iftar and Sahoor only managed to sleep for an extra hour or two. Still worth it. My plan is to take advantage of that tomorrow as well before the work grind starts again. Not a lot to talk about today but I do have a real treat for Iftar. I hope you enjoy the recipe!

For Sahoor

Speaking of sleep, I slept too much and barely woke up with enough time to make something quick and eat it this morning. Luckily, like I had said in my last post, I had omelette stuff cut up already so I just had my standard 2 egg yoke/4egg white dish. I really didn’t drink a lot of water but I had been hydrating the night before. Oh and yeah that caused me an extra bathroom trip. Anyways, that’s all I had plus an apple.

For Iftar

This dish is called Meatza…pizza but just meat. It’s a combo of ground beef and chicken with various spices. My apologies go out to the vegan community for this recipe. The directions below make about 1.5-2 servings.

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 lb ground chicken
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 small tomato
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 green pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 3 -4 stems of parsley
  • 1/2 tsp ground cilantro
  • 1 sweet potato, skinned and diced
  • 3/4 tsp oregano
  • 2 tbsp of hot sauce (If you aren’t great with spices I would lower this mount)
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a food processor, drop in the onion, tomato, salt, chili powder, green pepper, cumin, parsley, and cilantro. Put aside 1/4 of the mixture for the chicken. The rest will be used for the beef.
  3. Place the beef into a bowl and mix in the processed items. Then move it to a baking dish and place into the oven. Let it cook for about 10 minutes.
  4. While that bakes, heat up a pan and add in the coconut oil. Add in the sweet potato and then place a cover over it to steam. Cook it for about 5 minutes or until it is soft.
  5. When the sweet potato begins to soften, add in the chicken and remaining mixture and stir. Add in the hot sauce as well. Cover it until it’s cooked.
  6. Once the beef is done, add the chicken/sweet potato mixture to the baking dish.
  7. Bake it for a few more minutes and you are done. I dressed it with a banana pepper but that’s optional.

Being Ready for the Audible

Well there was audible called in my plan for the day hence why this post is so late. I came home early from work thinking I was going to relax for a little bit, come up with an awesome Iftaar recipe, go to the gym and then of course write this post. Let’s just say I got the relaxing part done…  2 1/2 hours later I realized I had fallen asleep on the couch and had about 30 minutes before it was time to eat. Oops. So with 30 minutes to make an iftaar meal you’ll see what I did.

For Sahoor

I stuck with eggs because, same amount 2 egg yolk 4 egg whites. I did however switch from omelette style to making them sunny side up. You can say I wasn’t in the mood for onions or tomatoes in the morning. I cooked them in extra virgin olive oil. Once on the plate, I sprinkled a bit of sea salt and chili powder on them and went to town with a fork. I added half of an avocado to the plate as well.

For Iftaar

1/2 lb of chicken breast, diced
1/2 tsp of chaat masala
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 onion, diced
1/2 tomato, sliced
mixed vegetables (how ever much you want)
1 Tbsp of coconut oil

Heat up a pan and add in the coconut oil. I marinated chicken with the chaat masala and sea salt. If you are wondering what masala is, click the link in the ingredients and you can see what its made up of. Add the chicken to the pan and stir it around until it’s nearly done. While the chicken is cooking, heat up a pot with water and add in mixed vegetables. Broil them until they are done. When the chicken is nearly done, add in the onion and tomato. Stir until the tomatoes become soft and the onions are crisp.

20130712_205910

This was super simple to make and it tasted just fine. I sprinkled some lemon juice on the plate to add some tang. This isn’t orthodox, but if you are a spice nut like me, you can sprinkle some chili powder onto the vegetables for an extra kick.

One thing that I will say is that because this month is so busy, you have to be prepared ahead of time for situations like this because they will come up. The chicken I’m using was skinned and diced well ahead of time and frozen. When I get home from work, I make sure to take the meat out and let it thaw. This way, if I do get delayed at the gym or in a nap, I can still prepare something decent to eat. I do the same thing with my omelette mix. I try to cut the onions, peppers, etc ahead of time so in the morning I can just quickly prepare the meal. Do what you can ahead of time this month! You may sacrifice a little bit of freshness but I barely notice it and prefer that over having to do all of the work while racing against the clock.

WOD

Nap for time

Am I disappointed I didn’t get a workout in? A little bit but that’s ok. My body needed the rest and that’s one of the 3 points of the fitness triangle. I will have no excuse for the next day!

Know Thy Limits

A jam packed day 3 is in the books and it was full of stupid decisions by this guy. Well really just one big stupid decision and it came when I went to the gym. More on that in a bit. Hunger wise I found my self holding up real well today so my body is starting to get used to it. I was working from home today so I was able sleep an extra hour or 3 which helped. I felt a little hungry in the morning and felt a bit dehydrated during the workout. Based on past experience, the first part will go away on its own but the second part will require some effort from me. I need to start hydrating better! It’s not easy chugging water in the morning after you’ve just eaten so I have to find a better way. Coach Dan B. once told me to start hydrating the night before. I’ll have to stop being lazy and try that advice out. We’ll see how many times I wake up in the middle of the night…

For Sahoor

I had a bit smaller omelette this morning, 2 egg yokes and 3 egg whites. This freed up room for some mashed up sweet potatoes I had left over from the other night. Sweet potatoes is another thing I found that keeps me full for longer and gives me good energy. I also had an apple, fuji of course, and drank about 64 oz of water. The water intake is going to have to increase if I want to WOD in this heat. Other than that, this meal held me up very well throughout the day so you will see this pop up again.
Again, I promise I have some fun recipes outside off just eggs coming up. These first few days of Ramadan have just been hectic with all of the adjustments.

For Iftar

I’ve made chicken dishes for the past few days so it was time to switch it up. Today I made a Greek-ish fish meal.

2 filets of tilapia
3/4 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp crushed pepper flakes
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup of olives, halved
1/4 green pepper, sliced
2 shallots, diced
extra virgin olive oil
*Disclaimer* – I like my food spicy so adjust the peppers to your taste

Mix the chili powder, black pepper, crushed pepper, lemon juice, and salt into a bowl. Coat the fish with this mixture. In the mean time, warm up a pan and add olive oil to it. Once the  oil is warm, make sure the stove is on medium heat and place the marinated fish on the pan. Fish cooks fairly fast so keep an eye on it. I cooked it for about 12 minutes.

While that cooks, heat up another pan and add about a Tbsp of olive oil to it. Once the oil is warm, add the olives, green peppers, and shallots to the pan. Saute this for a few minutes constantly mixing it. Once they appear done, turn the stove to the lowest setting and finish cooking the fish.
Once the fish is done, place it on a plate, add the olive mixture on top and you have yourself a great finding nemo meal. If you like a tangier taste, squeeze some lemon juice on the fish.

WOD

Ladder with a Partner – Reps are done between two people.
10 Burpees
20 Toes to Bar (on a pull up bar)
30 lunges
40 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls with a Kettle Bell
50 Squats
40 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls with a Kettle Bell
30 lunges
20 Toes to Bar (on a pull up bar)
10 Burpees
-Then-
Partner Core Work – switch off with partner as often as you want. Not for time.
Partner hold plank – other partner does 20 Toes to Bar
Partner hangs from a bar – other partner does 30 Pull Ups
Partner holds handstand – other partner does 15 hand stand pushups
Partner holds squat – other partner does 50 hollow rocks

This is where I got a little senseless. I had wanted to start out slow and just do strength training today. However when I got to the gym, I saw it was a fun little partner metcon. Next thing you know I’m warming up to do it. I survived the WOD pretty well but then there were extra core workouts we were to do. Half way into the core work, the dizziness from dehydration hit me hard. I had to stop for a little while before I got back into it. Of course that was the big mistake. I should have quit when I had the chance. I finished the hollow rocks but life was not fun for the next 15 minutes or so. Luckily I didn’t get sick or pass out but I don’t think I was far off. I guess it’s part of the adjustment so this shouldn’t scare anyone off from working out. Just know your limits and know at what point you have to stop. This isn’t your everyday working out. It takes a whole different level of thought and today, I left all that at home. Oh well lesson learned. 

On to tomorrow!

First WOD, sort of

Day 2 in the books and it’s getting easier already! I was actually able to catch up on some sleep last night which made for a better day. I had planned on going to the gym today to work on Olympic lifts but I left work later than I anticipated. I did however do a mini home WOD before opening my fast.

For Sahoor

I had a similar sahoor meal as yesterday, 2 egg yolk/4 egg omelette with onions and tomatoes chopped up into it. I had half an avocado with it as well. I also had an apple today (Fuji apple, my favorite). This was a great addition but contains a lot of sugar so I had a spoon of peanut butter with it. The protein in it helps break down some of the sugar from the apple and also gives me some extra calories to get through the day with. I wasn’t able to drink as much water as I wanted but my tolerance for drinking a lot of water at that hour is increasing. It did the job; I barely felt hungry throughout the day…well, until I started staring at the clock with 10 minutes to go.

For Iftar

Here is another simple recipe that I cooked up that takes very little time and effort  and tastes great.  Here is what I had today:

12oz of Chicken breast, diced
1/2 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp of crushed pepper flakes
Handful of chopped spinach
1/2 tomato
1/4 onion
1/4 tsp sea salt
Baby carrots sliced in half

Heat up coconut oil in a pan and then add the chicken to it. Add in the sea salt and chili pepper. Mix the chicken up and let it saute. When the chicken is nearly done, add in the crushed pepper, spinach, tomatoes, onion, and carrots. Continue to mix it up until the carrots start to get soft. Then, put a top on the pan and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes.

20130710_192437

It turned out well. I think if I had added broccoli it would have tasted even better. Be careful with the chili powder, it gets spicy fast. If you like chutney, you can add that to your plate and it will compliment it well. Later in the evening I had some watermelon for dessert.

WOD

Like I had mentioned, I wasn’t able to make it to the gym today but I did do a short home WOD. The home WODs I’ll post will be workouts you can do on the go and won’t require any equipment. I utilize these when I travel or when I’m short on time.

6 Rounds For Time

10 Pushups 10 Air Squats 10 Sit Ups

Also, I know these posts have been real late both nights. I promise these posts and recipes will get more exciting in a few days once I figure out my schedule. I’m trying to figure out a way to balance my schedule so I can cook for Iftar, workout, eat, go to Taraweeh prayer at the mosque and then sleep at a reasonable time. As the days get shorter the schedule should ease up a bit since I won’t be rushing off to Taraweeh right after Iftar.

See you guys tomorrow!

I’m an avid Amazon shopper and have subscriptions set up to many things like coconut water, home supplies, etc. I forgot that I also had a subscription to this treat until it showed up at my door:

Yeah oops! Haribo Gummy Bears are halal gummy bears and they are addicting. I apparently have a subscription set to send me a 5 POUND bag every 6 months. Yeah, 5 pounds! I didn’t realize you could buy sugar in that kind of quantity. The sad thing is, the last time I ordered these was when I had my surgery and in the week I was in bed recovering, I finished almost the whole bag! I need to get these out of sight ASAP.

Sahoor

For Sahoor, I kept it simple and made 2 sunny side up eggs with another 2 egg whites in olive oil. I mashed up some sweet potatoes and had that as well. I always knew egg yolks aren’t the best for you, but I recently read an article on just how bad they can be for you. I have to do some more research on that and see if I need to cut down on those a bit.

Iftar

I was busy volunteering tonight so I didn’t have much time to prepare Iftar. I was able to pull out the chicken chapli kabobs I had frozen and turn them into a bun-less burger. I added lots of lettuce and tomatoes and called it a meal. I also had some cantaloupe.

Workout

I borrowed this workout from a reader’s blog. There are some great workouts on that blog that you can do anywhere with minimal equipment. You can do this one anywhere as long as you have a pull up bar:

10 Handstand push-ups
20 Dead hang pull-ups
30 Burpees
40 Sit-ups
50 Squats
60 Push-ups
 
 

I don’t have a lot to say in this post because I’ve been spending a little more time concentrating on Ramadan. I hope everyone is going strong these last couple of days and is able to finish strong. It’s almost over!

Pardon the Egg Roll and Snacking

So last night was another situation where I had Iftar at a friend’s house. I talked about this a few posts ago about creating a game plan when you are on foreign turf. I stuck with the same principles last night and I was able to get a great Paleo meal in. Much thanks to my friend and his family for great food!

Workout

This workout was 2 short workouts put together. There was a little bit of a break in between them to recover but there is only so much recovery when you haven’t eaten or drank all day. I got through it though and even ran!

3 Rounds
15 Hang Power Cleans 135lbs
15 Burpees
–10 Minute rest–
5 Rounds
35 Double Unders
Run 200 M

My stamina is building up and my body is adjusting to this so I will be curious to see how my body performs when it’s fully hydrated next week. If I’m starting to perform decent now, I should be a killer next week right??

Iftar

There you see some meat, some greens, a broiled tomato, and a unique lemon with spinach dish that I have to find the recipe for. I made sure to empty a jug of water.

Last night was also Laylatul Qadr, or night of power. It’s the 27th night of Ramadan and is a very special occasion. During the nights of Ramadan, there is a special prayer called Taraweeh every night. During these prayers, the Quran is recited in it’s entirety over the span of 27 days. Last night was when the last bit was read. The turn out was phenomenal. There had to have been over 2,000 people in the mosque. This was the case at mosques around the world. After that is done, people spend most of the night praying, reading the Quran, and worshiping in other ways. It’s said that worshiping in this night contains more reward than 1000 months. I’m all about good deals and that sounds like a good one to me. So I spent the night back and forth from the mosque. Now, dinner was around 8 pm, I didn’t sleep till 6 am. I had to have gotten hungry, so how did I snack?

I tried to stay healthy while snacking most of the night. I did indulge on a few Doritos (booo yeah I know), but I contained it. I had some mashed sweet potatoes left over from the other night so I ate that. I ate some watermelon to satisfy the sweet tooth, the almond butter came in handy as well. What was missing was guac… I need to fix that. Anyhow, I also snacked on gluten free hummus and drank lot’s of water.

Sahoor

This took me right into Sahoor and I made Chicken Stir Fry with eggs:

    • 3 eggs
    • 1 Tbs of water
    • 1/8 tsp of sea salt
    • 1/4 tsp of chili powder
    • 1/4 onion, chopped
    • 1 small tomato, chopped
    • 2 Tbs of coconut oil
    • 2 Scallions, cut in to 1 inch pieces
    • 1 bell pepper, chopped
    • 1 clove of garlic, minced
    • 2 chapli kabobs, diced or 1/2 lb of cooked chicken breast, diced

Beat the eggs in a bowl with the water, salt, chili powder, tomato, and onion. Heat up a pan and add the coconut oil. Add in the scallion, bell pepper, and garlic and saute for a few minutes until they are tender. Add in the egg mixture along with the chicken and start mixing it around. Keep mixing and scrambling until it’s done.

Serve it on a plate with some slivered almonds. A sliced avocado would go great with it too. I had some sweet potato remaining so I ate that with it. I drank 1.5 liters of water and was full.

This is it, less thanb 3 days left! Stay focused and let’s get through it.

Going Egg-less

I realized I forgot to post last night about what I had for Iftar so I will roll it up into this post. I made some chicken scallions and rosemary with a side of mashed sweet potatoes. I made enough for 1.5 servings so I could have some in the morning too.

    • 1 sweet potato, peeled and cut into pieces
    • 1 lb chicken thigh, diced
    • sea salt and chili powder, to taste
    • 2 Tbs of coconut oil
    • 2 scallions, sliced in to thick rings
    • 2 Tbs of rosemary, chopped

Wash the sweet potatoes and place them in a large pot full of water. Bring the pot to a boil and add 1 tsp of sea salt. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup of water from the pot and drain the rest. Pour the water you saved back into the pot and mash up the sweet potato.

Season the chicken with the salt and chili powder. Heat up a skillet with 2 Tbs of coconut oil. Once the skillet is hot, add in the scallions and rosemary. Saute it for a minute or so and then add in the chicken. Mix and flip until the chicken is brown. Cover it and let it simmer for 10 minutes.

I served the chicken with the mashed sweet potato. It was an exceptional combo. I wasnt as hungry as I thought I was so I ended up saving a decent amount for later and Sahoor.

For Sahoor, as promised, I really changed things up. I decided to go egg-less. I have had eggs almost every single day this past month but it was time to break the habit. I had some of the leftover chicken from the night before that I heated up. I also made a little treat with a banana and almond butter.

    • 1 banana
    • 2 Tbs of almond butter
    • 2 Tbs of coconut milk

Cut the banana into small slices. Add in the almond butter and coconut milk. Simple as that.I love fruit with almond butter so this was great for me. The almond butter helps process sugar a lot better from fruits so it won’t keep you up and your body won’t store it. Also, the protein and fats you get from it are great. The coconut milk just made it easier to eat by softening things up. The small taste of coconut gave it the perfect carribean taste I needed in the morning.

Very simple Sahoor. I’ll try to do something different tomorrow too!

Paleo Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are known as the “Safe Starch” in the Paleo community and are great for providing energy throughout the day. They add that unique sweetness to a meal and can help curb a lot of junk food cravings you might be having. They also contain tons of vitamins such as B6, vitamin D, Iron, and potassium. You can make tons of snacks with sweet potatoes and they don’t take long to prep. Just don’t confuse them for yams. This morning I made some scrambled eggs with sweet potatoes shredding:

    • 1/2 a sweet potato, shredded
    • 1 tsp of cinnamon
    • 2 eggs
    • 2 egg whites
    • 1/4 onion
    • 1/4 tsp sea salt
    • coconut oil

Skin the sweet potato and then shred it into strips. You can also use a food processor to do this. Add coconut oil to a medium-heat skillet. Once it’s hot, add in the sweet potato and sprinkle the cinnamon after about a minute. Saute them until they are tender to your liking. Put them to the side. Add the onions to your skillet and saute until they become soft. Add in the eggs and egg white. Mix around until egg is scrambled. Add in the salt. Continue to mix around until the egg is done.

I put the eggs over the sweet potatoes and then added a bit of hot sauce to it for flavor. I love sweet potatoes and I loved them even more with eggs. This was very quick to make. The longest part of all of this is to skin and shred the sweet potato. If you like eating it with the skin, you can just drop the potato into a blender and then it’s even faster.

Additionally I had 1.5 liters of water and a protein shake. This should get me through the day and workout!

Return on Investment

Before I get into today’s topic, I want to share something that I’ve been laughing to myself about all day. In my last post I talked about not giving in to peer pressure or those food temptations you would regret later. I think I could have used this yesterday at the froyo place:

Lol anyhow, return on investment, ROI. I could go on for pages about the ROI you can get from this month so I will just target what this blog is intended for. I’ve talked to a few people about their eating habits during Ramadan and I hear one answer pretty often. “Oh it’s Ramadan, so it’s my month off from watching my diet.” Sigh. I think we need to alter our thinking when it comes to this. If Ramadan was only one day like Eid or Thanksgiving, then sure, by all means do what you want. However, we are talking about 30 days of when we should be striving for perfection in all aspects of life. By cultural habit, these 30 days consist of some of the worst food your body will ever consume throughout the year and since our brains tell us we are starving, we indulge in gluttony. Why do everything else good this month but neglect our body? Ramadan is usually a month for change in a lot of our daily habits. We strive to be nicer, more charitable, more pious. Why not add “Healthy Lifestyle” to the list of habits you want to make a positive change on during this month. By binding yourself to those intentions for these 30 days, you could come out a changed person with a whole new lifestyle. Investing in yourself for these 30 days could return a lifetime of benefits like decreased medical bills and disease prevention.

I noticed my ROI decrease in recent days when I stopped putting in much effort for Sahoor. I was stuck in a cycle of waking up late and just throwing together an omelette. I got bored with this and started eating less, resulting in decreased energy throughout the day. I’ve decided that for the rest of Ramadan, I will be waking up much earlier to ensure I make something enticing for Sahoor. This will involve doing some preparations the night before too so I’m excited to wake up and get ready for Sahoor.

Sahoor – This morning I made a mexican breakfast dish, Huevos Rancheros. It’s essentially an egg omelette with salsa.

    • 1 tomato, chopped
    • 1 jalepeno pepper, chopped
    • 1 garlic clove, minced
    • 1/4 small onion, chopped
    • sea salt
    • 2 eggs and 3 egg whites
    • 2 Tbs of olive oil

Puree the tomato, jalepeno, garlic, and onions in a blender. Put 1 Tbs of oil on a hot pan and then add the salsa to it. Cook it until it starts getting thick. Move it to the side but keep it warm. Make the omelette to your desire. Add the salsa to the omelette and you have your self Huevos Rancheros.

Look, it’s a happy meal. Hahha…ha…ha. Anyways, it was a good breakfast. I had a couple of spoon fulls of almond butter as well. I drank 1.5 liters of water.

So I’ve told you what changes I will be making. Are there some that you are looking to make too?

Be the Example

Eating properly when you are with out your peers is a lot harder than when you are cooking in your own kitchen. For one it’s all too easy to order something that you will regret later. You also have the peer pressure, the jokes, and the tedious task of finding something that would fit your lifestyle. This is especially hard when you are first starting out a Paleo lifestyle or any healthy diet for that matter. However after a few weeks, that diet becomes your lifestyle and all those former “tasty” treats aren’t as appealing to you. That might also be because you know how your stomach reacts to those things now when you go overboard on a cheat meal. Put those temptations to the side, lead by example and who knows what minds you will change. If a group of friends constantly sees you subbing the rice for vegetables, at some point they might consider changing their habits for the better as well. Be the example.

If you know you will be going out and you know what restaurant you will be eating out, do your homework. Most places will provide a menu online. Look through it before you head out and see what you would like. That way when it’s time to order, you aren’t put into a bind and make the wrong decision under pressure. Check out what sides the meal may come with and what your alternatives could be. Go in with a game plan and backup game plan. If the menu isn’t available online, don’t be shy about asking the staff for nutritional facts or how things are made. Most places will be more than happy to provide you with that and if they don’t, well then place might just not fit your lifestyle. Also don’t hesitate to ask for substitutes. Chances are the greens you ask for are a lot easier for them to provide than the cheese or rice. Do your homework, have a game plan, and stick to it at all costs. You never know whose life you could change at any given moment.

Sahoor – Today was going to be a workout rest day for me so I didn’t eat as well as I should have. I had 2 scrambled eggs with onions, tomatoes, and peppers. I added some sea salt and ground pepper to it as well. I also had a chicken chapli kabob (the ones from yesterday). I downed a liter of water and called it a morning.

Iftar – I went out to dinner with friends and took my game plan with me. I searched for the restaurant’s menu online, found what would be Paleo friendly, looked up was in it and some nutritional facts. I ended up ordering Tokyo style Ahi Tuna with mixed vegetables and steamed broccoli. Usually this dish comes with vegetables and rice. I had my game plan with me though so I knew I would substitute out the rice for something else. I chose to go with broccoli. It also came with soy sauce (probably sodium loaded so I avoided it), wasabi, and ginger.

I did falter slightly with the desert afterwords and had some frozen yogurt. I stuck with the non fat yogurt but it’s still processed junk. My friends decided to call me out on it so I posed for a picture eating it to remind myself to stick to the game plan next time!

Overall, do your homework, have a game plan, avoid peer pressure, and hold your self accountable. (phew, doesn’t that line just blow you away??) haha anyways, until next time!
