My Weekly Nutrition and Training Plan


The below nutrition plan is what I eat Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday during the day I still eat clean but will eat whatever is left over or what I have around my apartment. Two nights a week I have "treat" meals - whatever I choose. They are usually Saturday and Sunday night, but it does vary. I switch up my eating every week. I plan the week before what I want to have for meals, make the grocery list, and prep the food on Sunday's. A lot of times people will ask me if I get bored eating the same thing everyday. The answer is no. It is only 5 days a week that I eat the same thing. I eat to live - not live to eat. It took me a long time to come to that.  I also do this to save money. I live alone so I can't really cook tons of different things during the week because it's too expensive and will go bad. There are also ways you can switch up your eating day to day. Like my Quest Bars for instance; I eat a different flavor everyday, same with my yogurt. You can read here for meal prep ideas!

I have been off of my game for a couple of weeks. I had a lot going on at work which required client dinners, lunch meetings, etc. My mom was also in town, and then last week I was out of town for my birthday. It resulted in some missed workouts, and more than usual dining out and snacks. I am 25 pounds away from where I want to be, so I am ready to buckle down and get serious!


Total down (since 11/25/13):  62 pounds!
