Holy Meal Prep Batman!

So, this week I was bad... I didn't plan out my meals at all. And it burned me today bad. I usually plan to grill out so that I can have leftover meat for breakfast and lunch for a few days (yes, I will eat a part of a chicken breast or pork chop for breakfast to make sure that I'm getting my protein in), but this week, we've hardly grilled out at all. So, for breakfast today, my manager was bringing in Panera for catering. Now, don't go getting all worried, I didn't go off plan at breakfast. I ate some string cheese, and a small apple. Since cheese is counted as a protein, I'm still totally on plan. And for lunch, I walked over to the hospital and got a grilled chicken breast with a slice of pepper jack cheese on top, and some steamed broccoli and cauliflower. Now, since I doubt that the pepper jack cheese was low-fat, that was a little off plan, but I was worried that the chicken breast would have no flavor/seasoning on it (which it turned out it did, so, I know no cheese for next time. :)), so, the single slice of cheese being off plan I think is ok.

Seriously though, if you decide to make this lifestyle change, you WILL be needing to do meal prep. Tonight for dinner, we're grilling boneless skinless chicken thighs, so, I'll have breakfasts and lunch this weekend. :) I did find a recipe for a type of bread I can try too, which is good, since I'm totally craving a hot ham and cheese sandwich. I blame one of my PA's, who had a sandwich yesterday that smelled exactly like a hot ham and cheese. :) As soon as I make the bread (I might be going to get the ingredients tonight, so, keep a sharp eye on the blog!), I'll post the recipe, and pictures. In case I don't post this weekend, have a good weekend everyone, and to all the moms out there, Happy Mother's Day!
