As I was prepping
meals for this week though, I thought that I could share the recipe for this Warming Winter Chili with you all.
Not exact matches
I will save this recipe
though and add it to my
meal plan
for next
week.
A typical full day of eating
for me looks like: Breakfast: Spinach, Mushroom, Onion and Tomato Frittata... sometimes with bacon or homemade sausage Iced Coffee with coconut milk Lunch (this is usually my largest
meal of the day): 4 - 5 ounces of protein (turkey burger, pulled pork, chicken thighs, ground buffalo), roasted veggies and sometimes a sweet potato or butternut squash Snack: apple with almond butter or a handful of macadamia nuts Dinner: A large salad with all kinds of raw veggies (cucumber, celery, carrots, cauliflower), avocado or olives, usually a lighter protein like grilled chicken breast, salmon or shrimp This would represent a full menu... I would say I hit this about 4 - 5 days a
week, other days I may omit the snack or keep the snack and omit a
meal, if i do that
though I would add a bit of protein with it.
No problem there
though... if I'm prepping something
for my daughters breakfast that requires baking time, that's when I try to get my other
meal & food prep done like washing, chopping, storing veggies / fruit
for the
week,
meal planning, portioning my proteins
for quick
meals, etc..
None
for me while doing my Paleo Challenge
though I always plan my
meals for the
week but usually switch some things around.
And
though I'd like to take credit
for sticking to the budget — I am doing it thanks to Phyllis, our life - saving Super Nanny who puts a
meal plan and grocery list together
for me every
week.
There is a lot to do through the day (
though the nights are quiet) and you could easily stay
for 2
weeks and not repeat a
meal between the restaurants and buffet theme nights.
Seriously,
though, I do want to apologize
for going silent on The Lunch Tray this
week, but I've been working very hard behind the scenes on the Change.org petition I launched on January 13th, along with Nancy Huehnergarth and Barbara Kowalcyk, to prevent chicken processed or slaughtered in China from reaching our supermarkets and school
meals.
For the first
week though, some friends organised to drop
meals off.
I have dropped grains
for nearly two
weeks (
though had to have pasta tonight — didn't get a chance to do shopping and the only thing I could make a
meal of tonight!!).
Though it is probably not a bad idea
for the whole family to eat a few vegetarian
meals per
week it is important to find a few options that can accommodate everyone.
The thing that is tough,
though — is given that my goal is 100 lbs down by 2/23 (my birthday)-- it is frustrating when I deviate slightly (had one night where I ate quite a bit of carmel corn, and the next day big stirfry with light soy sauce, etc)-- yet because I ate even more strict and cleaner than before
for 11 straight days before that (not one cheat day, processed food or
meal), I gained 14 — yes 14 — pounds in water weight that two
weeks later I have only lost 12 of, despite hitting the gym 6 times since, and continuing to eat stellar (no cheat - low sodium days)-- Funny thing is, my clothes are looser and looser --
Though they have awesome dinner recipes, I've been trying out Hello Fresh, a food delivery service that drops off a box of ingredients and recipes once a
week for fresh, healthy
meals you can cook in about 30 - 45 minutes.

After 3
weeks,
though, your dog is probably getting used to your comings and goings, learning the daily routine, and starting to figure out when the next
meal is coming, that you walk at the same time every morning, that he gets to go out
for regular potty breaks.
Don't allow him to gobble down his food as
though he hasn't seen a
meal for a
week, or drink a gallon of water at mealtimes.
