My journey to the stage 12weeks out

Today is Super Bowl Sunday, but for me it is meal prep day.  I'm so happy I started a few weeks ago getting ready for this, it wasn't easy and at first pretty ugly lol.  I have  it down so I can laugh now but it wasn't always funny.  

Meal prepping is a science with precision, knowing what your macro intake should be, when your  refeed times are, and timing of eating each meal.  So I can tell you at first it can be overwhelming if you don't have a plan.  Planning is the most essential part, I know what your thinking, "who has time for that?" Well you make the time!  I Am Busy!  But I make the time, staying on track to achieve my goals is more important than anything.  Having  a very tight schedule if I don't do this on Sunday my eating is not right and I would never achieve what I set out to.  

First I figure out how my macro plan will be for the week.  Then I grocery shop, finally pre-paring everything.  I steam broccoli, green beans, kale, snap peas.  Roast Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.  Prepare brown rice and quinoa, bake boneless skinless chicken breasts with different types of Mrs. dash seasonings on it.  Make up ground chicken and ground turkey with onions, peppers and fresh garlic.  

Next I lay all my containers out and measures each item according to my plan for each meal, then stack by day in the fridge. 


Now my week us ready!  Yes it is some work, but I don't have to think about this again until Saturday.  Thus making my week of eating Easy!  This is the fastest "Healthy" food you can get! And the only way to really get the results you are truly looking for.  

This is a lifestyle, not a diet!  I have a cheat meal but I plan it.  I can travel and bring meals with me as well, so I save money and stay on track.  I will allow a treat or two though.  Well Its time for me to go to bed and rest up 5:30am cardio comes early! Good night all!
