The Performance Diet

Since I’ve been getting back into the gym, I decided to go for the performance diet. After spending lockdown eating takeaways and cooking indulgent food several times a week, plus less exercising, I was definitely ready for a health kick. Whether you are a competing athlete, a weekend sports player, or a dedicated gym go-er, the foundation to improved performance is a nutritionally adequate diet. The nutritionists at Love Yourself have developed a winning formula to ensure you receive exactly the right amounts of lean fat, carbohydrates and protein for optimal performance. The performance diet includes a wide variety of foods like wholegrains, breads and cereals, vegetables, fruit, lean meat and low-fat dairy products to enhance long term nutrition habits and behaviours. The performance meal plan is made up of 35% Carbohydrates, 35% Protein and 30% Fat.

This meal plan is ideal for:

  • Men & women looking to maintain lean muscle mass
  • Individuals wanting to boost exercise performance or fuel training sessions
  • Individuals tracking macros
  • Men & women wanting to adopt a healthier eating regime

One crucial additional factor is the total calories you take in. Even the perfect macronutrient ratio is ineffective if your calorie intake is too high or too low. These daily meals will provide enough energy and nutrients to meet the demands of your training and exercise. Prepare to enhance adaptation and recovery between your training sessions, which in turn will enable you to achieve optimal body weight and body fat levels for performance.

My Review

The meals I received were actually all delicious! I’m not a picky eater by any stretch of the imagination, but I have had some very poor ‘diet’ meals in the past. These however, were the opposite. I received a few days worth of the meals. These included filling breakfasts, yummy smoothies, delicious pastas and stir frys, and plenty of flavour! I think the danger of so called ‘diet’ or ‘health’ foods is that they can often be super bland or boring to try and keep the calories down. Love Yourself pack their meals with good, healthy ingredients that are really tasty and do good for your body. I definitely felt like I had great energy levels for my performance at the gym. Plus, I never found myself feeling hungry or dissatisfied. I love that the meals and snacks are all quite varied so it doesn’t just feel like the same meals over and over.

I’ll pop a link to the performance plan page here so you can look at the most recent menu, as the meals I received might not be the same ones that are currently available right now.

You can get 20% off too if you use this link to shop!

📍Snaps from our stay at @deadwoodcabins 🤠🇺🇸🌵 a dreamy Wild West inspired retreat in rural Lincolnshire with the cutest cabins, cosy log fires and the best neighbours Dolly and Doris 🐷 cannot recommend this place enough for a little glamping getaway 👌 it was so nice to have a bit of a digital detox - the cabins have games and a private BBQ (you can pre-order food for the BBQ which will be in your fridge when you arrive) so we spent the night cooking dinner and smores, playing scrabble and drinking mulled wine in front of the fire 🥰 there are three different cabins to choose from and all of them are filled with souvenirs and trinkets that make each one unique. There’s also a saloon if you want to go hang (BYOB or there’s an honesty box for beers from the fridge) and you can help yourself to fresh chicken eggs for breakfast too 🍳 thank you to @paarriiee for being such a lovely host, can’t wait to come back 🖤

‘Ndu Y’Olive Me? YES @nellspizza I do 🍕❤️ 
There’s some new menu items that have made it straight to the top of my faves list, including a chopped salad, moreish garlicky dough bites, and a pizza with nduja, olives, vodka sauce and basil 👌 ALSO the cocktails are SO underrated here - the margs are top tier and their new seasonal drinks are a must try. Will be back for the pistachio ice cream sandwich (so hard not to prioritise eating as much pizza as possible and save room for dessert but I will manage it one day) ✌️

NYC day 6 ✌️ 🖤 started with mimosas on our NYC day 6 ✌️
🖤 started with mimosas on our rooftop. Waking up to the nyc skyline is my fave.
🖤 we got the subway to @citifield to watch the @mets ⚾️🏟️ so much fun - would definitely recommend doing this if you’re visiting. The whole experience was one of my favourites of the trip.
🖤 A little wander and some vintage shops on the way back to the hotel before getting ready for dinner.
🖤 Dinner at @ivan_ramen 🍜👌 easily the best ramen I’ve ever had (thanks to @josgoncalves91 for the recommendation - SO glad I went here and would definitely recommend to anyone else. Watch the chefs table episode on Netflix.)
🖤 ended the eve with a couple of amazing cocktail bars - @superbuenonyc (no.2 in North America’s 50 best bars) and @attaboy134 (22 in the worlds 50 best bars)🍸 unsurprisingly both up there on my list of favourite cocktails. Also both really lovely atmospheres and would 10000% return. Attaboy have no menu but you just tell them what you like and what you’re in the mood for and they make you something incredible 👌 it’s also hidden behind a very normal looking door (last pic) so you gotta knock to get in.
Superbueno is Mexican-American, a really fun vibe and also serve food 🌮

Autumn menu PERFECTION at @evelynscafebar ✨👌 Autumn menu PERFECTION at @evelynscafebar ✨👌 one my favourite evenings at one of my favourite spots, and the food is so so good. The menu is mostly small plates (with some biggies in there too) so it’s perfect for sharing with some bottles of wine ofc. 💕
My faves are the Tuna Crudo, BBQ Mackerel (the best mackerel I’ve ever eaten), the steak is 10/10 and honestly Evelyn’s is one of my fave places for the veggie dishes! Oh and the lamb. AND the dessert! Okay I’ll stop. If the fact that every dish on the menu being great isn’t enough to get you there, they also offer 50% off wine 5-7pm weekdays 🍷 which is surely one of the best happy hours in town?! 
20/10 always great and this menu might be the best yet!
