21 Days left to my second bikini comp.
I was given the chance to travel to Phuket with my good friend and manager Sarah Lian.
Here's how i kept to staying on track with my food while on holiday.
Just follow the Ps = Plan. Prepare. Pack.. and bonus Protein.
I knew I was already travelling, so I planned out what I was going to be eating and what I could eat. From there I prepared my meals. Then I packed my food and snacks.
Pretty straight forward.
1. Prepped my meals from home. Packed them into zip lock bags. This way I was able to ensure I could still meet my macros and limit the mystery of not knowing what was used to cook meats and veggies. I also packed the snacks I know I would be able to munch on like Japanese Cucumber and I permitted myself roasted seaweed.
2. Packed on the protein. Whenever I'm out, i ensure the first thing I can get is a solid meat protein source plus veggies. I was fortunate that I have access to a restaurant / lounge where I knew I could find chicken. For those who do not, best bet is a chicken rice shop, you can get your veg and chicken.
3. I prepacked my fibre powders to avoid any gut problems
4. Eating at restaurants, first thing I look on the menu is chicken. Grilled, steamed, Baked would be good options. It's also cheaper cause seafoods are a lot more expensive.
5. WATER is your best friend. Stay hydrated so that you avoid feeling bloated, lethargic and sleepy.
6. Find a grocery / supermarket to get the good snacks. Nearby to where we were staying I know there was a Tesco available. I'd recommend for to go there and get fruits, nuts like almonds will fill you up good, if you must go for dark choco.
Quick update on life and my thoughts on comp.
Lots happened in the past week. Went for some athletic rehab which I wanna share with you in the next video. I rested a lil bit more cause muscles were overly tight, from lack of stretching and rest. Plus the big news which i didn't get to reveal on OCT 30 was, last Friday was my last day on the station I dedicated my time to for the past 4 years. The video of that will be in the next vlog.
