Meals on Monday- P90x3

I am going into my third week of P90x3.  I have lost 5 pounds in the first two weeks and am feeling myself tighten up.  I will give you a full review on what I think of this program later this week.  Stay tuned for that!

When I am working through any program, I study the nutrition guide that comes with it! (Did you know all of Beachbody's workout programs come with a nutrition program and meal guide?!)

This one was a bit different for me.  It dealt with blocks of food, proteins, carbs and healthy fats.  I had to think about how to vary my meals, incorporate those foods, and carefully make sure I wasn't doubling up on a block.  

Meal planning is something I love to do.  I love to create a map for my health.  I have to tweak it based on how I'm feeling. After the first week I realized I was relying too much on heavy, starchy carbs instead of leafy greens and fruits to fill my carb requirement.  I am constantly reminded that every day is a chance to learn something new and change something to get better results, to feel better.

So here is what my plan looks like this week.  I like some variety but I also believe that you can repeat things to stay on budget at the store! This mama loves sticking to a budget!
