What meal plan is best for you?
As always I want to remind you that I am not a Dr., nutritionist, dietician or even trainer. I am just like you continuously looking for ways and resources to help me along the way.
We know that in order to lose weight we have to burn more calories then we intake aka EAT. In order to ensure this MEAL PLANS are key. I like to even set alarms throughout the day to make sure I eat my meals and snacks at the appropriate time. Remember we want to eat within a half an hour of waking up and every 3 to 4 hours after. What would a day on a meal plan look like?
