If I don't meal plan, my week generally doesn't go the way I want it to. I end up eating things I shouldn't, and the scale is usually not my friend.
I find that it makes my life easier if I eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch at least Monday - Thursday. Typically, I am over whatever it is by Friday and I will have leftovers or grab a salad or a chicken sandwich or something I have been craving. I usually don't plan for the weekends because it just isn't usually realistic for our little family.
I found this printable on Pinterest, and it came from The Project Girl. She has lots of cute, free downloads!!
Notice how my sheet is folded up and wrinkly? That is because I actually use it. A meal plan does you no good if you leave your list at home when you go to the store. I took it to the store with me and I have it at work with me today. It will most likely end up on the fridge. I would love to find a bound, purse-size friendly version where I can look back at previous weeks when I am stumped for ideas. If you know of any- please let me know!
