What Does A Nutritionist & Personal Trainer Eat

Superfoods

A question I get asked quite often is what I typically eat in a day which does vary depending on my goals, but the bulk of how I set up meals, snacks, and the pre/post workout nutrition is the same.

Some may think nutritionists are food snobs constantly judging everyone’s shopping cart… and I still do, but we are lovers of food too!  Which means all foods… yes that includes pizza and ice cream!

I love food! Did I mention how much I love food? I need a plan in place and do consistent prep or else I too fall victim to purchasing and eating certain foods in the moment. Outlined below is generally what I eat all year around, with slight variation when trying to add a bit of muscle and strength during the off season… aka the winter months.

Typical Day of Eating

BREAKFAST

Protein Shake:

  • 2 scoops of vegan protein (1 vanilla flavour, 1 plain unflavoured)
  • 1 cup unsweetened cashew milk
  • 1 cup frozen fruit (blueberries, strawberries, peaches)
  • 1 scoop greens powder or handful frozen spinach
  • 1 packet of digestion plus (prebiotic, probiotic, and digestive enzyme blend)

AM SNACK

  • Small apple with 1/4 cup nuts (usually walnuts, cashews, or almonds)
  • 2 cups of iced green tea with lemon

LUNCH

  • 3 cups of mixed greens (baby spinach, baby kale, romaine)
  • 1 cup chopped veggies (cucumber, bell pepper, red onion)
  • Greek dressing (olive oil based)
  • 2 tbsp raw pumpkin seeds
  • 5-6 oz. chicken or piece of salmon

Pre-Workout — Drink 1 scoop caffeine-free pre-workout 20-30mins before workout

Intra-Workout — Drink 1 energy fizz stick in 500mL of water

Post-Workout — Drink protein shake with After Workout BCAA supplement and Oatmeal

DINNER

  • 5-6 oz. lean protein (steak, chicken, or white fish)
  • 1 medium sweet potato or 1/2 cup rice or 1 cup rice pasta
  • 1-2 cups of roasted broccoli with garlic and lemon or another salad

PM SNACK

  • Egg Omelette or Protein Shake or Protein Pancake or just a decaf Herbal Tea

 

Workout days include the 2nd Protein Shake and extra carbs when rest or moderately active days I’ll skip the starchy carbs.
