So I hinted last week that change was coming as far as meal plans. I started the AdvoCare 24 Day Challenge last Wednesday in order to get healthy and loose some extra pounds. I have been eating mostly lean protein and fresh produce with a few complex carbs midday. Dinner can be a bit tricky as my boys do enjoy pasta. I have just bean making either fish or chicken and then different side dishes that suits the kids. Thankfully the boys like fresh produce too!
If you are new to Menu Planning, check out my tips on creating a menu plan.
Monday- Mahi Mahi Fish Filet for me, Leftover Chicken for everyone, Quinoa, Green Salad
Tuesday- Grilled Cheese for boys, Salad with turkey for me (baseball night so quick meal)
Wednesday- Grilled Pork Loin with Grilled Veggies, Brown Rice
Thursday– Stir Fry with leftover pork loin
Friday– Eating out since we will be out of town (This will be my first challenge with eating out while on the 24 Day Challenge!)
For my healthy snacks I have been eating hard boiled eggs, almonds, bell peppers with hummus, fruit, rice cake with natural peanut butter and Larabars. I haven’t had any cravings really and it’s been rather easy sticking with the healthy options.
For my lunches I usually have leftover protein from the previous night and a green salad. Sometimes I have half of a sweet potato, a little quinoa or brown rice too. Making extra the night before is the key to my success with packing lunches!
What is on your menu this week?
