This week is going to be CRAZY! Well not the whole week but the next couple days are a little nutso. My kids are going on their annual summer trip to Colorado with my mom to visit my sisters. Last year they went for a week and had a blast. This year they asked to stay longer so I am letting them stay for 10 days. This is the first time they will be away from me for that long. It is a little nerve-racking but they will be with my mom and sisters so I am not too worried. The moments leading up to their departure are quite hectic. You think I was planning a trip for the queen or something.
As you can see I am trying to fit a million things into 3 days. I need an assistant. No joke, I plan to bring on an assistant in the next couple months. Don’t ask me what they are going to do yet. Maybe just talk me down from the cliff every now and then. Just kidding. I don’t know what I will have an assistant do…but I do know that having one will help – along with a housekeeper. Yes a housekeeper…let me take a moment and fantasize about that. Ahhhhhh.
Until then let’s get to my weekly weigh in, exercise schedule, and meal plan.
Let’s get to my weigh in.
Here are my stats.
SW: 177
GW: 130
LWW: 148
CW: 148
PL: 0
I know I didn’t lose any weight this week but I feel really good. I got in 4 solid runs and made sure to drink a green smoothie every day. So while my weight didn’t budge I actually felt slimmer and not as bloated as the last few weeks. I feel pretty confident moving forward.
This week I need to be flexible with exercise so I am not going to write out a schedule. I still plan to get in a lot of exercise because my girlfriend is also a runner. And she is committed so I know there won’t be any slacking in the exercise department. I anticipate we will be taking my running outside instead of on the treadmill. Also, most of our days will be spent basking in the sun by the pool so if I get motivated I will try to get in a couple of swimming workouts too.
My only concern for this week is the amount of wine that will be consumed. Just saying. That is something I will have to account for. Oh and she is obsessed with cheez its too. Oh boy weigh in next week might be a problem. Haha well it will be worth it I am sure.
Here is my meal plan this week. Again, I need to be flexible and easy. This is what I am planning for us minus the popcorn, cheez its, and wine. Oh and I am sure there will be a reese pb cup thrown in there too. Ahhh I wish she was here now!
Of course you can also find my menu on Plan to Eat. I have a few months of menus saved over there. If you subscribed to Plan to Eat, and friend me (username organizeyourselfskinny) then you will have access to all my menus. All you need to do is drag the menu you want to view into your planner and all the meals will pop up. From there you can adjust accordingly and print out a grocery list. Easy peasy.
This is what I plan to eat this week.
Breakfast
Make ahead tips
