Stick to Healthy Eating All Week

Here are seven tips:

Write your menu somewhere you'll see it.⁣
A chalkboard or menu board in the kitchen, or other visible spot reminds the whole family what's for dinner. ⁣
You're less likely to ditch your healthy eating plan when it's front and center.⁣

Grocery shop on Friday or Saturday.⁣
You'll have healthy options in the house all weekend.⁣
You'll have more time and energy to meal prep on Sunday.⁣

Order groceries for pick-up or delivery.⁣
It's easier to stick to your list and avoid unhealthy temptations.⁣
You'll spend less money, and save time.⁣

Plan 3 healthy meals for the week.⁣
3 feels a lot less overwhelming when you're starting a new habit.⁣
Leftovers can fill in the rest of the week.⁣

Cook your biggest recipe on Sunday or Monday.⁣
We tend to lose steam as the week goes on.⁣
Plan simple recipes for later in the week.⁣

Make extra to have leftovers for lunch.⁣
Pick one or two larger recipes.⁣
Leftover chicken, fish, and taco meat are great protein options for a healthy, filling salad.⁣
Portion out leftovers as you're serving dinner.⁣

Set things out before you leave.⁣
Spices, measuring spoons, pots and pans, can opener, and any non-perishables.⁣
Seeing everything will help you stick to the healthy meal you've planned.⁣
