LIIFT4 Meal Plan: Week 2

As I suspected, Plan C was a little too much food for me most days, so I’ve revamped my meal plan to correlate with Plan B. The great thing about this meal plan is that I can not only do that, but I can move back up to Plan C on days where my pregnancy cravings are stronger than normal. Have […]

Burrito Bowl

A burrito bowl is one of the most versatile, quick-and-easy meals you can make. When it’s time to clean out leftovers in the fridge, burrito bowls are there. When you have a hodge-podge of ingredients in the cabinet, burrito bowls are there. There’s really nothing these delectable dishes can’t accomplish, and they’re super cheap to make! We have Dillons grocery stores in […]

2B Mindset and the Portion Fix System

Beachbody released the 2B Mindset nutrition program on May 2nd separate from Beachbody On Demand. The main questions I’ve seen ask how it differs from the portion fix system, which one works best, and why it’s separate from Beachbody On Demand. How does 2B Mindset differ from the portion fix system? 2B Mindset relies on a tracking system where you […]

Double Chocolate Cookies

Double Chocolate Cookies are one of the 80 Day Obsession approved foods from the Fixate cooking show. It was my favorite of the treats from our first Refeed Day. They look like the really gooey cookies you get from the bakery at Dillon’s without all the processed garbage in them. Processed garbage is delicious, I know. Most of us will […]

Baked Donut Holes

I’ll start with the good news: if you’ve stumbled upon this post in search of a recipe for Refeed Day, you’ve come to the right place! The bad news: with this recipe, 1 serving = 1 donut hole. I know. I know. Let’s take a moment and weep together, shall we? This recipe is adapted from the Fixate recipe available […]

Healthy Shepherd’s Pie

I’ve always called this dish shepherd’s pie. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I learned the awful truth: the shepherd’s pie I grew up with was a lie. Shepherd’s Pie is made with lamb. I come from a corn-fed family from the Midwest. We didn’t eat lamb. What we’d been eating was actually a version of cottage pie. […]

Ground Turkey Stuffed Peppers

I’ve been saving my blue (healthy fat) containers for hummus and veggies at night, but tonight I made a sacrifice and used one for shredded cheese. Sweet mother of dairy, I’ve missed cheese! Tasting it again was like embracing an old friend. I may have missed cheese more than chocolate. This 80 Day Obsession version of stuffed peppers equals 1 […]

Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos

Adapting recipes that are approved for 21 Day Fix has been my saving grace. I’m all about being creative and creating beautiful meals. I’m also about worker smarter not harder. When you have four hungry boys to feed, you take the easy route when you can. The Beachbody blog lists the portion container equivalents of their Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos […]

80 Day Obsession Week 2 Sample Meal Plan

My meal plan is always fluctuating, but I like having a general idea of what to expect. This is my sample meal plan for week 2 of 80 Day Obsession. I’m following plan B, but these can easily be altered to accommodate any of the plans. The days I eat each meal will likely change. One of the dinner options […]

Chicken and Asian Salad

Chicken is my go-to meat. It’s easy to make, goes with nearly everything, and the kids love it. It’s a simple addition to meal planning because you make a huge batch on Sunday then portion it out for several meals with a variety of sides.  For this meal, I wanted something fun with a little crunch. Ginger and jalapeños are […]
