Fail to Plan - Plan to Fail!


I know pretty much everyone has heard the phrase, "fail to plan, plan to fail."  As overused as it may be, it is so so true!  Whenever I don't stick to a plan (whether it be nutrition, workouts, work related...) I try to look back and see what threw me off course.  When it comes to nutrition it is ALWAYS about lack of planning.  Many times when I don't feel like cooking I will think "oh I will just get a salad and grilled chicken at work tomorrow!" Yep, 9/10 times that doesn't happen!  Orrrrrr, I come home from work and I am famished - nothing in the fridge? OK I grab something EASY that doesn't fit my day! So you get the idea, planning is key.

The above prep gives me about 3 days worth a food give or take.. I have a few days off in a row on Monday, so I didn't need to cram too much prepping in today.   All of this legit took about an hour to prepare (not including cook time for crockpot!)

  • Sliced strawberries
  • Baby carrots
  • Hummus
  • Yogurt
  • Turkey Bacon (applegate - uncured, nitrate free!)
  • Roasted cauliflower and broccoli
  • Spinach mix
  • Steamed shrimp (Buy it cooked, peeled, and frozen - throw a few servings in a tupperware and place in fridge - within 6 or so hours it will be ready to go!)
  • Rice/bean mixture
  • "Chipotle Style Chicken" in the crockpot!
Not Pictured that will definitely be included in my day:
  • Almond butter
  • Shakeology + almond milk
  • Sweet potatoes (I buy the bag of mini sweet potatoes that you can microwave right in the bag, easy peasy!)
I have a crazy schedule, if I can fit this into my routine, so can you! xoxo.
