Groundhog Day star Elise McCann shares what she eats before, during and after a performance.
directors, lunch is a salad of fennel, cabbage, onion, radish, capers, peas, parmesan, basil, parsley, mint, olive oil and lemon vinaigrette, and a peanut protein ball.Between rehearsals and the first preview of the show, another soy latte and some vegies with hummus.During the show, I consume a 50-gram snack pack of sugar-free gummy snakes and more coconut water.The show finished, I eat five chocolate-covered macadamias and drink more coconut water.
Your vegies with hummus are a nutritious snack choice, adding much-needed protein, healthy fats and fibre.Find it very hard to meet all your nutrient needs, as you eat just one proper meal, with snacks the rest of the time. Women your age have a very high iron requirement and your intake this day is low, your overall kilojoule and protein intakes are low – which may impact your energy and muscle levels over time – and you have few omega-3 fats.
