Eat8: Fall in Love with Made-A-Head Meals (Especially on Mondays), Stick to Your ‘Prep Plan’
Share|Produce Tally & What Worked for Mon.

Read MoreEat8: Left-overs for Breakfast | Accountability
Share|Produce Tally & What Worked for Mon. Dec. 19th Goal: 8 servings | Actual: 9 I enjoyed day 1 success of exceeding my goal to eat more fruit and vegetable servings because….I was accountable to telling you! By lunch, I only had 4 servings. A festive holiday dinner of yummy cheese and crackers was on the menu prior to me introducing Eat 8 yesterday. What worked today to help me eat more fruits and vegetables: Left-overs (and love of warm & savory) for breakfast – I bulk cooked 2 soups on Sunday and will enjoy the simplicity of heat-and-go breakfasts all week! Accountability – knowing I was going to post what I ate allowed me to rethink just having...
