Controversial info onboard!
This month I am focusing on keeping things SIMPLE to help you stay on track with your goals in 2022.
Today I want to talk about your MEALS … because a lot of times we’re led to believe that the more complicated and “fancy” our nutrition is, the better.
Here’s one GREAT way to keep it simple:
Come up with a “food formula” that works for you, that includes meals that
you love,
are simple and easy to throw together, and
align with your health & wellness goals
And simply rotate meals that follow that formula throughout the week!
You do NOT have to reinvent gourmet meals every time you sit down to eat … or constantly come up with new ideas every day.
Having a go-to formula works in several different ways:
● It simplifies your shopping and food prep.
● It removes “decision fatigue,” which can happen when you’re forced to make choices all day long. The more decisions you make, the harder it becomes to make good ones!
● It helps stop that overwhelmed feeling you can get when you’re wondering whether your choices are “right” or “wrong” or “good” or “bad.”
● It saves you time and energy and can actually help you stay on track.
This works whether you’re prepping meals for yourself or a houseful of picky eaters.
Personally, it’s SUCH a relief NOT to have the “what’s for dinner” question hanging over my head every day.
