Mama,You know that saying, “When you fail to plan, you plan to fail,” I completely believe that. When I talk to busy mamas who want to improve their health, they say they will do just about anything to lose weight, but when I ask them about meal planning, they say, they can’t meal plan. Most people think meal planning takes too much time and isn’t worth it, but I have an easy 3-step meal planning system that saves busy mamas so much time and it helps them lose weight!‌And I get it, mama, when you start meal planning it can feel so overwhelming. These are a few of the biggest roadblocks mamas have told me that they run into with meal planning.It’s too time-consumingYou can’t get your family to agree on one mealYou don’t feel like eating what you plannedYou don’t have the ingredients to eat what you plannedYou can’t think of a single thing to make‌I used to have these problems too! Then, I implemented my backward meal planning system and now I spend maybe 15 mins a week planning meals and grocery shopping. That’s it! It’s so simple and quick that it’s easier than not meal planning.‌This system is one of the first things I teach my Macros Made Easy clients this system and it makes losing weight infinitely easier!‌“The biggest ‘aha’ moment is planning dinners first, and working backward from there. I don’t have to eat a separate meal from my family.”Joanne Mcmillen‌Mama, I want to give you this system for free so that you can reach your health goals too! When you couple this meal planning strategy with macro tracking it makes the biggest difference in your health and weight loss!Plan your whole day - but start with dinnerWhen you think of meal planning, you usually just think about planning dinner, but I want to talk about planning for your entire day.‌Making a daily meal plan doesn’t have to be overly complicated! I plan out my meals just one day before - with the exception of dinner. Once a week, I plan all of my dinners because dinner is usually my biggest meal and I want to make sure it fits into my daily meal plan.‌It’s super important to me that my family all eat together and that I don’t have to cook separate meals. By knowing what dinner is, I’m able to plug that in and then plan the rest of my meals around it.‌After I’ve planned my dinner, then I go back in and plan the rest of my meals and snacks for the day.‌If you’re macro tracking, this is the best way to meal plan! If you’re not macro-tracking but are just looking to eat healthier, I still suggest planning your meals like this because it saves you so much time!‌A lot of mamas don’t make meal plans and then spend countless hours worrying about what they’re going to eat. I used to do the same thing and it was exhausting! Until I started meal planning I didn’t realize how stressful it was to go without a plan!‌If you start planning your meals you’ll be able to build healthy meals and you won’t fall victim to mindless snacking, or ordering Doordash because you don’t know what else to do.How to put a healthy meal togetherOne of the biggest reasons people quit eating healthy is that it’s too hard! Trying to find healthy recipes or cooking a complicated meal every night is too much work! Which is why I don’t recommend that to my clients!‌In macro tracking, there aren’t good or bad foods. Which means you don’t have to eat certain foods to be healthy. You don’t need a new cookbook or a bunch of pinned recipes that claim to be healthy. You can eat the foods you like! So I always recommend eating food you’re already used to, and just tweak how you plan your meals.Start with proteinStart your meal planning by choosing what proteins you will serve for the week. Here’s the key to making your meal-planning process simple: only pick 2-3 proteins for the week!‌You’re still going to have a protein at every meal, but by choosing just 2-3 different types of protein, you’re going to make your prep work so much easier!‌Instead of preparing a different protein each day, you’ll bulk-cook your proteins and then add different seasonings or sauces to them depending on the meal. Bulk cooking is going to save you so much time in the evenings as well! It’s been a game changer as a busy mom who is running around from the time school ends until bedtime.‌‌Let me show you one of my meal plans so that you can see how I bulk-prep my proteins and still have variety throughout the week.‌Say you choose pork, chicken and shrimp for your proteins. Here are the meals I would make with those proteins to switch things up.‌With the pork you could make:Shredded pork burrito bowlsBBQ Pork sandwichesI’ll use the chicken inChicken shwarma saladChicken shawarma kabobsBBQ chicken nachosThen, I’ll have a shrimp meal:Shrimp fajitasAdd sides to complete your mealOnce you have your proteins picked out and you’ve decided what you’re going to make, then it’s time to add ...
