Weekly Meal Planning

I've said it before, but I'll say it again....the biggest key to diet/weight loss/weight maintenance success is PLANNING! Planning healthy meals and workouts ahead of time makes it much easier for me to visualize my goals and stick to my plan. 


Here's a look at our dinners and workouts for the upcoming week.  
It's going to be a tough one. I have 3 races to announce (3 4am wake-up calls and very early breakfasts) plus 2 dinners out, a family birthday party, and a much anticipated trip to Epcot's Food & Wine Festival.  

Food & Wine 2010

This week it's definitely about "maintenance" and eating as clean as I can when I can.  


Meals & Moves 10/16-10/23:
Sunday - Sunday Supper - Real Housewives of NJ style! haha!
