WEEKLY MEALS

This page will develop as my meal plans.  I try my best to sit down on Saturdays or Sundays before I hit the store to get food for my meals.  If you have recipes you want to try, make sure to write those items down so you don't stray away from your plan.  Also be sure to eat before you go so your urges don't get the best of you and you start picking up chips or extra things that you don't need.


When thinking snacks try to pair proteins with carbs so that you are fuller longer.  The protein should be lean and carbs should be complex!  Until now, my meals for January can be found in each day's post.  I decided this may be an easier way for others to get ideas if it is in one place.  I am by no means a nutritionist or telling you to eat these meals.  I am just sharing what I have found to be beneficial to my healthier lifestyle based off others who are healthy and research from health magazines and websites.


So here we go.
