It&#8217;s a nice reminder that for me, less is more and this works better for my goals &#8211; doing shorter, less challenging flows but doing them daily. I&#8217;ve done a couple of hour-long highly challenging flows this week and they left me exhausted, soar, and starving in the following days. When will I learn?<\/p>\n<p>It was just so tempting because I&#8217;ve been feeling so well lately and finally after quite a while I feel really healthy and full of energy again. I recently had a challenging female health issue that was really holding me back but now that it has resolved I couldn&#8217;t be more grateful! I feel younger and healthier than I have in quite a while &#8211; honestly maybe years.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t done a precise calorie calculation on this plan yet, but my estimate is that it can be about 1,500-1,850 calories a day depending on what you do for snacks and dessert. I&#8217;ve been starving after these challenging flows I&#8217;ve been doing so I&#8217;ll be on the higher end. Hopefully, I can tone it down a bit and get back to my normal next week.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoy, it looks like a delicious week!<\/p>\n<p>Real Food Diet Menu Week 2<\/p>\n<p>Breakfast<\/p>\n<p>Blueberry smoothie<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/crystalandcomp.com\/blueberry-breakfast-smoothie\/\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener\">,,<u>https:\/\/crystalandcomp.com\/blueberry-breakfast-smoothie\/<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Homemade bagels<\/p>\n<p>Lunch<\/p>\n<p>Crockpot tomato soup<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thesaltymarshmallow.com\/slow-cooker-creamy-tomato-soup\/\" target=\"_top\" rel=\"noopener\">,,<u>https:\/\/thesaltymarshmallow.com\/slow-cooker-creamy-tomato-soup\/<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Chicken tender salad (I just make a green salad and include baked chicken tenders from the frozen section on top.
