[Food] Preparation is Key!

To avoid eating out or grabbing food to go, you will need to prepare meals ahead of time.  This includes deciding what meals you are going to prepare for the week and shopping for the food.  It may also include cooking casseroles or meals and possibly washing and cutting up veggies ahead of time.  If this is not what you usually do, it may take some time for you to get into a routine and know what food to buy and how much food you will need for the week.

Full Fridge on Sundays
Full Fridge on Sundays

On Sundays, David and Jennie spend a few hours cooking and preparing meals for the week.  See the fully-loaded fridge above?  This Sunday it contained washed and cut veggies and fruit and an egg breakfast casserole (pictured below).  By the end of the week, the fridge will be nearly empty.  David eats A LOT!

41Fitness is on our second week of our 100-day nutrition challenge.  This week you should be striving to eat two Paleo meals each day.  Here are some of David and Jennie’s meals from the past two weeks.  Recipes are not included because Jennie created most of these on her own.  If you are interested in any recipes, ask Jennie to tell you what ingredients she used and how she made them.
