Week 8: February 18 to February 24
I am feeling good after losing 1.8- pounds last week. I have been intentional about eating and staying busy to avoid boredom eating. I am enjoying adding in vegetables and beans into more meals that ever before.
Sunday I am prepping again so early this week isn’t so hectic with household items. The house is clean, all laundry is done. I have a beef roast in the crock pot and will be making meatballs and chili later today for our meals 3 days this week. We always have tacos on Tuesday, I could probably cook up the meat early to save time but am just now thinking about that. 🙂 I made more oatmeal muffins yesterday and put them in the freezer so have quick breakfasts for the week. Brian was asking for deviled eggs, ham roll ups and BBQ smokies yesterday so I am working on making some deviled eggs today. I am not going to make the ham rolls ups or BBQ smokies as I also made up a chickpea mediterranean salad yesterday that we can snack on. As I continue to prep on Sunday’s I expect that I will get better at it from planning, grocery shopping and cooking.
My goal is this week is to lose 1 to 2 pounds before our ‘reward’ day on Sunday. I am going to do a better job planning the reward day so I don’t have an upset stomach by mid day.
