Okay hopefully life will start getting back to normal – last week was hard. I was stressed and working more than usual. But I’m starting to get back into the swing of things. I am starting my battle with my weight again, good and strong. Yesterday I was battling some depression. I lost to eating a bit of sweets, but I did make a point and workout to try and battle it also.
Goals this week:
- Get more organized and make a better daily plan
- Workout every morning with a 5 minute workout
- Do a longer workout 3 days this week
- Start working on a Challenge for PepperScraps
- Log Calories 3 days
Menu Plan
Breakfasts & Workouts
I am posting some healthy breakfasts and workouts on my facebook page, so if you are needing some inspiration for the morning make sure and like Pepper Scraps.
Batch Dinners
Because hubby is at school 3 days a week I’m cooking up one large batch of soup, stew, or chili for the week and we eat on that for those nights. Last week I did this and it worked pretty well though the third day I was a little tired of the meal. But I just added up some different toppings and that really helped.

Lunch:
- Monday: Cabbage Turkey Sandwich (Recipe coming soon!)
- Tuesday: Grilled Corn, Tomato, & Avocado Salad
- Wednesday: Sweet Potato Frittata (Recipe Coming Soon!)
- Thursday: Salad
- Friday: Walking Lunch

What’s on your menu this week!? I would love it if you would share a favorite recipe or suggest a recipe to try for my family!
My hubby is the cook so I never know what we are eating from day to day. Great job on planning your meals 🙂
Great job on getting your planning in. That is something that I need to become better at so that I am not trying to figure fod out last minute!
Great job on the planning! It always makes a difference for me too! This week we’re having baked white fish, roast chicken, ditalini pasta with leftover roast chicken, pierogis with chorizo filling, and homemade pizza!
Your meals sound SO good! Can I come over?! I need to jump on this meal planning wagon! Here’s to an awesome week!
I hope on your off weeks or when you are feeling a little blue you can look at the side by side comparison of yourself on your sidebar and beam with pride. You are doing fantastic overall!! I did not menu plan this week but am keeping things pretty light with cooking jazz. I weigh in with my midwife every two weeks with my current stage of the pregnancy and have been doing great. Last night was bone marrow and beets at a restaurant with friends, the night before a loaded peanut sauce dressed veggie and tofu salad.
