What I Ate on the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan: Week 7
After an amazing long weekend filled with wedding festivities and champagne, I had to get myself back on track this week and start eating what’s on the Tone It Up nutrition plan. There are only a couple more weeks of this Tone It Up Bikini Series and I want to finish strong! Plus, Alex and I have a beach trip coming up, so there’s that. So when we got back in town, I walked to the grocery store to grab a few healthy essentials to carry me through.
Here’s what yesterday’s meals looked like on the Tone It Up nutrition plan! I’m a vegetarian so I follow the vegetarian version of their meal plan, but it’s pretty similar to the regular plan.
I started breakfast off with a giant green smoothie. As usual, this was 1 frozen banana, 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1 tbsp peanut butter, ½ scoop of vanilla protein powder, a handful of spinach and a handful of ice. Perfection. I also ate a few blackberries on the side.
The morning went by quickly so I just munched on an apple while working.
I couldn’t wait to eat lunch because I had leftovers from dinner the night before. I’d been craving this white bean & chickpea chili. It’s seriously so good, I don’t even care if it’s hot out and I’m eating soup. It’s also super filling so that helps.
When I got hungry in the afternoon, I snacked on a protein bar. I love that the Tone It Up nutrition plan recommends so many snacks! I feel like I’m eating all day!
Have you tried these Rx bars? they’re SO good! Plus they’re full of real ingredients. I’ve tried to cut out a lot of “fake food” and it can be hard to find a good snack bar option but I’m liking these. I also love Larabars!
For dinner, we roasted up some butternut squash, asparagus, and chickpeas. I use this recipe for spicy roasted chickpeas and this recipe for the roasted butternut squash. Honestly, I could eat this every night.
Later on, we watched an episode of Parenthood and I snacked on a few blackberries. These were so sweet and delicious. I’m pretty sure I could eat an entire package of these every single day.Â

If you’re thinking about joining Tone It Up but you’re on the fence, I totally get it. The meal plan isn’t cheap! But I joined way back in 2012 and I’ve really enjoyed it. (Also, I’m not any sort of affiliate. I’ve just done Tone It Up it for a long time!) Here’s the link to check out a free Tone It Up Nutrition Plan sample, which might help you decide!

Ah, greek pita sandwiches are soooo good! They’re hard to pass up!
Gummi bears and Parenthood sounds like a perfect day to me. (I LOVE that show!) It was so great to see you and Alex at the wedding! 🙂
I cry sooo much during that show! And yes, it was so good to see you as well!! I wish we had more time to catch up!
Loving all the green food! Oh and that candy cart. My work knows a little too well how to supply sweets. 😉
You’re really making me crave white beans and Greek food with your WIAWs lately. It needs to happen!
Blackberries aren’t my kind of fruit but I caved and bought two small packages of blueberries yesterday. I’d meant to wait for local ones but couldn’t resist and they’re SO delicious!
GREEK FOOD ROCKS MY SOCKS OFF!!! Now I want it! ha ah! OMG wait, no, it’s not funny, I REALLY WANT IT!
That chili/soup looks delicious. Chili is always a great meal no matter what time of year it is. Happy WIAW!
I could use some of that chili right about now since we’re having a gloomy thunderstorm!
I can totally eat soup/chili on any day whether it’s cold or hot out! I still can’t believe you have a candy cart at work! We have a big jug full of Jelly Beans so I guess I can’t complain!
Stunning photos- especially that smoothie! Your day of eats looks pretty balanced to me- life would be too boring without the occasional treat! My day of eats today involved peanut butter toast, a bunless burger, sushi & dark chocolate- pretty much my ideal day of food :)!
