Week 1: Meal Plan for 3rd March - 9th March


Week 1 is here, My #6WeeksToGoal Journey and like I promised, here is my meal plan for the week

Note that this is what I think will work for me. I have a very busy schedule so I can only afford to cook once a day which will be the lunch I take to work. So my breakfast, snack and dinner have been modified to easy meals with little or no cooking involved.

Feel free to substitute appropriate meals but remember, HEALTHY EATING is the goal. Control your portions no matter how 'healthy' your meal seems.

Keeping track of your meals is also very important to success. Check out my post on it here

Lastly, drink A LOT of water. Minimum of 3 Litres a day. Good luck and share your stories in the comments.




Grocery list (excluding items I have at home already)
• Kale/Spinach
• Coconut oil
• Tomato paste
• Brown rice
• Mixed veggies and mixed pepper frozen
• Strawberries, Greek Yogurt
• Bananas
• Mangoes
• Pineapple
• Grapefruit
• Brown Beans
• Plantain
• Sweet Potato
• Shrimps
• Goat meat
• Salmon
• Fresh Catfish
• Pepper soup ingredients
