  • First things first.... Watch this Video and stop self deprecating. http://youtu.be/xwrnSTX4Z48 Second, start looking for recipes you'd like to try and then plan your shopping with those recipes.

  • Hey I find that cooking a large meal or two on Sunday, intended for my work week meals helps me plan out portion sizes ( especially if you use the MFP recipe tool).
