Fan Girl Fitness: My Pre-Meet & Greet Meal Plan

If you've been following me on social media, you know that I LOVE a good concert, and a good meet & greet. I 100% believe in investing in experiences over things, and I've been blessed to have attended dozens of concerts and meet & greets over the years.

I love the fact that now in the 2010's you can actually PAY to meet some of your favorite music artists! Growing up I'd never had the option to do this, so when my favorite Boyband started allowing it for Fan Club members....I jumped on it.

There is a lot of preparation that goes into getting ready for a meet & greet photo. First off - this is a picture you are going to treasure for years to come. So you want to look and feel your best in it!

My friends always thought that I was silly, but these were the things I'd put into consideration prior to that BIG DAY of meeting my favorite artist:

1. Spray tan

2. Hair blow out

3. Makeup professionally done

4. New outfit

5. Some sort of a strict meal plan / workout plan leading up to the concert date

It may seem extreme to some, but I knew that the day I got to meet Nick Carter and Brian Littrell face-to-face, I wanted to look and feel MY BEST. And I slowly by surely started to get into a good routine for my health & fitness to lean out and make sure I felt my best in that photo I paid for.

Below is the simple meal plan I'd follow leading up to my Meet & Greet Photo.

Store extra seasoning mix in the pantry and extra dressing in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for future use.

To each container, add 2 cups spring lettuce mix, ½ cup chickpeas, ¾ cup tuna, ¼ cup red bell pepper, and ¼ cup chopped parsley. Store the lettuce on top of the tuna salad to keep from getting soggy. When ready to eat, drizzle salad with juice from ½ lemon and 1 tsp. olive oil.

  5. Prep the Avocado Shrimp Rolls. Stir together 2 tsp. mustard, juice from 1 lemon, large pinch paprika, and ground black pepper, to taste; divide dressing between 2 containers and store. Chop the pre-cooked shrimp into large pieces; divide between 2 containers with ¾ cup shrimp going into each container. When ready to eat, dice ¼ ripe avocado and store remaining in an air-tight container for future use. In a small bowl, toss diced avocado with ¾ cup pre-cooked shrimp and 1 container of dressing. Fill 1 small whole wheat bun with ½ cup chopped romaine lettuce, shrimp mixture, and top with 2 Tbsp. shredded unsweetened coconut.

  6. Prep the Chicken Burrito Bowls. Microwave frozen cauliflower rice per package instructions. Meanwhile, debone the rotisserie chicken and shred the meat. Once cauliflower rice is warm and chicken is shredded, assemble the burrito bowls. To 3 large storage containers, add ½ cup cauliflower rice, ¾ cup shredded rotisserie chicken, ½ cup chopped romaine lettuce, ¼ cup chopped tomato, ¼ cup chopped red onion, 2 Tbsp. chopped cilantro, and 1 Tbsp. sliced jalapeño. When ready to eat, top each salad with ¼ diced avocado and 1 tsp. olive oil.

In a large bowl, combine 1½ cups old-fashioned oats, 6 tsp. chia seeds, 3 cups kefir (or Greek yogurt), 1½ tsp. vanilla extract, 3 diced kiwi, and 1½ cups strawberries.
