So, after three days of doing well, I am realizing that it's not easy to make healthy eating a priority. It is easy to make excuses of reasons why I can't eat healthy: The kids are screaming, the hubby's not home from work yet to help with the kids while they are screaming while I am trying to get dinner ready, Gia has softball practice, there's nothing in the house to make so let's just order a pizza...the list could go on and on. I have just as many excuses of reasons why I don't feel like going to the gym. Just as many excuses of I don't feel like going grocery shopping.
BUT, What I have found out this week is that when I plan, it's easy to eat healthy. When I plan my food list for the grocery store, there's lots of healthy options to choose from. When I plan my meals for the day, I have healthy snacks ready to go for when I'm hungry. When I don't plan, it's easy to give in to temptations that can derail my progress.
So here's my meal plan for the day:
BF: Granola Bar
Snack: Popcorn
Lunch: Leftover shells with mushrooms, onions, and tomatoes
Snack: SF Jello, Apple
Dinner: Something with ground turkey
Snack:Smoothie made with strawberries and bananas
Gym: at least 30 minutes on the treadmill
