Adult Lunchable

How I define an adult lunchable:

meat (salami, or roast beef or turkey are my preferences)
cheese (string cheese, or laughing cow cheese if need a spread)
crackers (if not watching carbs)
pickles
fruit (seasonal)
veggies (carrots, celery, peppers) w/ dip (ranch, hummus, looking for healthy option)

Today is the day!

Hi.

My name is Jaye.  And I'm tired.

Tired of hating the scale.

Tired of feeling fat.

Tired of just not feeling well.

So, today is the day. 

I start accountability (hi, mom! hi, Raeanne!). 

I start meal planning.

And, I start moving, or really working on moving. 

Maybe blogging about it will help.  I can keep the plan in one spot, where someone can see it and ask about it; and if I link the recipe, and its good..., then I have a reference pile!  I can update if want; you know, pictures, numbers, etc.  Praying it works! Something has to change.

So, what's the plan?

Well, weekly meal menus uploaded here, with links to the recipes if needed.

Weekly to do lists of meal prep needs (thinking Sunday/Wednesday may be meal prep day(s)).

Weekly number/photo updates... because you need to keep track somehow.  And sometimes the scale may not change but the LOOK changes and isn't that more important?

Weekly workout updates (we're starting small here...).

So, what do you think?  You in?  Because as the blog says...

not another pound (gained) this week.  Something has to change and today is the day!
