THM Meal plan for 4/29-5/5

Hello!


This week was going well till date day. I did not bring something to snack like I meant. There was a long wait for my doctor appointment. My husband didn't want to eat when we got to Cattleman's. Then we had to wait again because it was too crowded. So I ate two rolls and when I got home, I ate off plan too. After eating off plan, I gained a pound which seems to be normal for when I eat off plan. Other than that, I am doing the bare minimum for working out. It's like my hamstrings just cannot get rid of the DOMs. My body feels exhausted sometimes. Then again, Glow Body PT does a lot of squats.

Real sourdough!
When I started writing this meal plan I was doing pretty well on plan till last night. My car broke down. I had a need-some-carbs-headache and caved to some pizza between some tears. It just makes it worse when you have kids in the back screaming/crying to go home! Today I reset with a deep s. So hopefully, it will be a better week next week. This morning I attempted to make a sourdough. I need to find a recipe I really like or plan it out better. I am not sure it turned out well.

I do plan to make sourdough discard pancakes this weekend. I believe half my issue right now is I am not doing enough E's in my life.

If you ever want to learn more about THM, the books are an absolute must to understand the entire program. I first checked the books out of the library and bought the Table book. I searched youtube for real testimonies on the plan.   They own all the rights to these funny letters and sayings! I am absolutely not a THM coach. I am just a mom that wants to help others! I am absolutely not the best THMer and I have my moments of rebellion.

Breakfast this week: I need to incorporate more E meals. So maybe this will be the return of oatmeal. If not, I will plan to make veggie filled plates like my veggie filled shakshouka, breakfast gondolas with extra veggies and stuff. Other e's to consider this week would stuffed french toast from Briana's website and blueberry baked oatmeal. Or that apple crumble for one with yogurt would be a great E breakfast!

Lunches this week: Leftovers. Or my basics like egg drop soup, deli sandwich or pizza sandwich. I need to really focus on veggies and lightening up my meals a bit! I have also started adding FP yuck yums or some kefir derivative because of the probiotics. My goal is to prevent GBS in pregnancy which is why I try to include lots of fermented/cultured products at the end of my pregnancies. Plus I have been using my amazing grass as my super food powder and ceylon cinnamon for my blood sugars!

Deals of the week: Porkchops are on sale at Sav A Lot. I got 3 lbs today. At kroger, they are selling grapes, kroger ground beef, BIG pack of strawberries, and living lettuce. I also need to get a few things from WIC left like beans.

Other deals of the week using coupon apps: Ibotta: cold brew, let's blend mushrooms, chef's cut beef jerky, Splenda stevia squirts, good culture cottage cheese, butterball turkey sausage. Check out my link below if you want to try ibotta to help save some money!

Here is my game plan:
Monday
:
S-Mommy's Meatloaf from Briana's website, with veggies and sides for non THM folks

Tuesday:
S- Spaghetti, either making the THT or using jar stuff that is no sugar added

Wednesday:
S- Pork chops, with veggies or/and sides for non THM folks

Thursday:
FP pork tenderloin with veggies/sides

Friday:
E-Black bean quesadillas from Coer's family blog

Saturday:
E or XO- Tootsie bell burrito night! This is one of the few that my husband actually likes.

Sunday:
Mystery fuel! Whoop whoop soup or chana dal soup. Basically, husband will have leftovers this night.

My goals this week include: continue exercising, tracking my blood sugars, and eating at least 90% on plan. I will start week 26 of the Glow Body prenatal plan adding in workins, barre or/and walks as needed through the week. My left hip is hurting at times. I think I need to do more stretches or yoga.  Also need to increase my core work. My GD test will be on week 27. So I wanted to get more data regarding my sugars before the test. If I fail, I would rather be prepared with my own data!

What videos would you like to see? What blogs will help you on your trim healthy journey? I do plan to tape another what I eat in a day while tracking my sugars this next week.
