Day 12: Let's Get Prepping

Many people use Sunday as a prep day for the week. (It doesn't have to be Sunday, just a day you have some time to prep meals.)

Remember all that yummy stuff you got at the grocery store yesterday? Get out your nifty new containers and start separating out meals and snacks.

Wash and clean and cut your veggies. Pre-cook roasts and cut them. Pre-make casseroles, frozen crock pot meals, home-made burritos, it doesn't matter as long as you have everything ready to go. Convenience is key!

Once that is all done, enjoy the rest of your weekend and know that you have set yourself up to have a great and healthy week!

You can do this!

Day 11: Making a List

Now that you have your goals and plans set and you have an idea of what you should be eating to live a healthy, active lifestyle its time to make a list, a grocery list that is.

Go through your pantry, separate anything that doesn't fit you plan. You can donate it to a food bank, give it away, or put it where you can't see it and be tempted to eat it.

Next make a list including fruits, vegetables and proteins. Scour Pinterest for healthy recipes and meal ideas. Have some kind of plan for what you will be eating and cooking this week and what ever you don't already have at home put on the list.

Remember spices and seasonings, you can experiment with them if you need to but if something taste great you are more likely to stick to your plan. Most people don't want to eat bland and boring food.

If you want pick up some nifty reusable containers while you are there so you can pre-pack and pre-separate meals and snacks. Convenience always makes things easier.

Now get shopping,
