WeeklyPlan and Halloween Survival Guide

The plan for this week is to survive Halloween!  Sounds simple enough, but with all that chocolate, what's a girl to do? I can avoid most of the candy, but my downfalls are Almond Joys and Kit Kats.  Tip #1?  Don't buy the candy you can't resist.  It's one thing to have your child get a couple while trick or treating, but it's another to willingly test yourself by having it in the house- don't set yourself up for that!  If you are giving out candy, choose something that isn't going to call your name every time you see it! Check out my Halloween Survival Guide (below) for some other tips on how to stay in control this week!

Here is my weekly meal plan, with scheduled workouts.  insanity Max has been kicking my booty!  I hate it while I am in the midst of the workout, but I look forward to it, and on my rest days, I miss the workouts. It takes so much focus and positive self talk to get through the Insanity Max workouts, that it is great distraction from life!  Some workouts (mainly elliptical, walking...things that are automatic), allow you to have time to think, which can be good.  In my case, I am thankful for the 30 minutes of having to be mindful of pushing my body to the limits and not being able to stress about anything else!

I have been trying at least 1 new clean recipe per week, so check out the Clean Eating section for some yummy clean recipes! This week's recipe was Cauliflower "Fried Rice" and it was tasty for not having any carbs in it!  I will be having it again this week!
