My Weekly Meal Plan

It is very important when exercising and trying to lose weight that you eat six small meals per day. This helps you to keep your blood sugar levels steady. It also helps your body maintain its muscle mass and fuels your body for your daily activities. Always eat breakfast within one hour of rising! And more importantly ALWAYS EAT BREAKFAST! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It starts your metabolism and gets your body ready for the activities you have to do during the day. If you are not losing weight, it could be because you are not eating a healthy breakfast with complex carbs and protein. Also, make sure you always pair complex carbs and protein at every meal. I recommend Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Recharged Book! She really explains the entire history and science behind eating clean and why you should pair your foods strategically together to get the results that you want!
Breakfast...

Before I eat my breakfast I get a large glass of warm water and place lemon in it. I drink the entire glass before I eat. This helps cleanse your body, improves digestion, and helps the body shed toxins. Lemon water is a natural diuretic. Each morning I eat two scrambled eggs with sea salt and pepper, a banana, and oatmeal sweetened with stevia.

Morning Snack...

Two hours later, I have my mid-morning snack: 1 apple with 2 tsp all natural peanut butter. You can also do any one of these options:

Celery w/peanut butter
Orange
Hard boiled egg
1/2 cup plain (no fruit) greek yogurt with fresh berries on top with a drizzle of honey or agave nectar and a scant handful of raw unsalted slivered almonds.

Lunch...

Shakeology with water and 1 cup ice. I also will put a 1/4 cup frozen fruit in it sometimes. I also will put a couple drops of pure peppermint extract or pure almond extract for flavor in the vanilla. I blend mine in a small Ninja blender and pour into my Shakeology cup for a nice treat. 

Afternoon Snack...

10 mini carrots and a hard boiled egg

Other ideas are:
Banana, orange, apple, berries
Cottage Cheese
Canned tuna in water
Spinach

Dinner...

Usually chicken, salmon, or turkey meat of some variation with rice and veggies. I use asparagus, brussel sprouts, steamed broccoli and cauliflower, or spinach salad. Check out my eating clean recipes for more ideas.

Snack...

Usually I have sunflower seeds for my evening snack. I always make sure that I am drinking half my body weight in water per day. This is very important for overall health and weight loss.
