    Breakfast: one scrambled egg, English muffin with a little yogurt butter and apricot preserves, cantaloupe with Tajin, iced coffee.

    Lunch: will be vegetable soup (made over the weekend) and a Morningstar patty with mustard.

    Dinner: will be fresh chicken & garlic ravioli, homemade marinara, and steamed broccoli.

    Snacks: hoping to stick to the smarter choices (fruit, sunflower seeds, pickles) but we do have quite the selection of treats in the house right now (salted caramel brownies... unnnffff).

    Do you guys feel like you always start the week doing super well with your eating, but everything kind of unravels by Thursday? I need to work on keeping my motivation to plan, cook, and balance good meals throughout the week.

    B- Cottage cheese & a halo
    L - A salad with leftover skinnytaste lemon feta chicken legs on top and half of a sweet potato
    D - not sure yet. Probably some leftover spiral ham from yesterday, the other half of my sweet potato and maybe a salad

    I'm worried about eating the ham. My scale was not happy this morning but I assume it's from all of the sodium in the ham??

    @shannonreidwiltshire Oh, for sure! High-sodium meals (especially dinner, I've noticed) will cause a little spike on the scale, but it's just water weight. Don't even sweat it. :smile:

    Breakfast: Triscuits and Boursin, some of the gorgeous first spring strawberries, iced coffee.

    Lunch: will be a tuna sandwich with raw baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices.

    Dinner: will be tater tot waffles, bacon, and fruit salad -- comfort food for a sick kiddo.

    Snacks: maybe an ice cream sandwich after dinner, and I have the usual sunflower seeds, popcorn, fruit, and pickles on hand.

    This week I'm into chicken breasts. I pound them then fill them with a spinach/feta mixture, roll them up, roll them in panko & bake them. I took some to a pot luck last week & everyone loved them. I also watched some videos on you tube about cooking one pot meals on a cookie sheet so I did that today-chicken breasts, green beans, Italian seasoning & some Parmesan cheese. came out real good
