⚙️ Afternoon Fuel System
Most afternoons, we keep it simple:
We proactively avoid cravings, stress snacking, boredom, fatigue…
✔ Protein + Fiber is our system
Examples:
🥣 Greek yogurt + berries
🍎 Cottage/string cheese + apple
🥤 Protein smoothie + chia
Why?🤔🤔
💪 supports muscle
🧠 steady energy
🍽 better satiety
⚡ Small Adjustment Before Lifting💪🏽💪🏽
Heading into your workout feeling flat or sluggish?
Add quick digesting carbs.
Examples:
🍯 honey + pinch of salt
🍉 watermelon + salt
🍌 banana
🥤 tiny juice
Why?
Quick carbs provide glucose, the fuel your muscles use during lifting.
Salt can help improve hydration and absorption.
🧭 The Simple Algorithm

💡 Remember
Sometimes fatigue before a workout isn’t a motivation problem.
It’s a fuel adjustment.
Fuel for the work required.
