Hello,
I just finished reading Jillian Michaels book Master Your Metabolism and am really ready to ditch the processed food and start going organic (as the budget allows) I was going to join her website to get meal plans (besides the ones in the back of the book) but it's just a little too spendy and from what I read not that helpful. I mostly wanted the meal plans, I am just know what I am eating everyday and not have as many food choices which I feel makes it easier in the beginning of a change like this. So I thought I would see what people here recommend. I don't mind eating the same things for breakfasts and lunches most days, maybe one or two options. Currently I have been doing a whole wheat English muffin, one egg, 1/4 shredded cheese, and 1.5 slices of turkey bacon and then a cup of strawberries or a banana and a glass of milk...I like this but want some new options too I guess. I used to be a cereal fanatic but wanted to up my protein. Lunch has been lean cuisines or sandwiches and a piece of fruit and a 100 calorie pack so I need a total overhaul there I guess. Dinner is tricky because my hubby is the chef so as I bring him around to eating whole foods I would love some help here too.
I know I need more veggies in my diet, I am just not a huge fan of very many types and I HATE beans of any variety. It's a texture thing. I never have and probably never will. So it is a little tricky to get all the things I need without that I guess...her book recommends legumes of some sort everyday but that is just not gonna happen. Sorry to be negative but I have tried a lot of types so it is not some mental thing I just really can't stomach them.
Anyways...this has been a novel. Thanks to any still reading this far
Any ideas, inspirations, encouragement, and/or recipes would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!
