Meal prep Monday


There’s a quote I love from Mark Twain:

"Habit is a habit, and not to be flung out of the window by any man (or women), but coaxed downstairs one step at a time.”

This couldn't be truer when it comes to meal prepping. Changes like eating healthier or hitting your weight loss goals don’t happen overnight. They’re built through small, consistent habits.

Each time you prep your meals for the week, you take one more step toward your goals. You’re creating systems that make it easier to stay on track, even when life gets busy.

Here is this week's menu:

  • Meal One: French Toast Casserole
  • Meal Two: Cottage Cheese, Peanut Butter, Chia Seeds, and Blueberries
  • Meal Three: Crock Pot Beef and Potato Stew
  • Meal Four: Spanish Rice, Broccoli, and Protein (Salmon or Chicken Breast)

Remember, habits are built one step at a time. Stick with what works, and you’ll see the results you’re looking for.

Enjoy!

I aim for 3–4 balanced meals instead of focusing on a total daily target. Stay organized. I spend about an hour each week planning meals and shopping, then batch-cook twice a week....

Most people who lose weight gain it back. Research shows 80% regain within a year, and over 95% within three. But a small group keeps it off. I studied what they do differently. In my latest video, I share insights from a study of 294 people who maintained their weight loss long-term. You’ll learn the five key themes that helped them succeed: Continuous monitoring Staying motivated Setting clear goals Overcoming challenges Embracing the ups and downs I also share personal stories and client...

Hey, After 21 weeks in a calorie deficit, I can tell you one thing, dieting is tough. You’re not only dealing with hunger, you’re fighting a food environment loaded with fast food, sugary drinks, and CRUMBL cookies. Even with all that, I’ve lost about 17 pounds and just over 10% body fat. It hasn’t been perfect. I’ve been hungry, had low energy, faced birthday parties, and been tempted by plenty of food. But a few tools helped me make progress: Meal planning and prepping Every Sunday I’d...
