Win for this week 🥹 wish i'd done this sooner
For those following along with my Sunday Shift, my focus has been hitting the next level with meal planning. I’m in week one of a simple dinner rotation. I made a Week 1 menu, I’ll build Weeks 2–4, then just loop back to Week 1. That’s it. I’m only three days in and honestly… this feels like a huge win. What’s wild is realizing I’ve probably spent way more time thinking about doing this than it actually took to do. If it took an hour, that would be an exaggeration. This was possible because it’s a stacked skill, I already know which recipes work for our family. I’m still the one making dinner most week nights, but having the menu on the fridge has completely lifted the mental load. On Monday I know which freezer meals to move up, which ones to pull the night before, which meals aren’t freezer meals, and what staples I already have. So many little friction points just… disappeared. And the reminder I keep coming back to: it doesn’t have to be complicated. Taco Tuesday can just be Taco Tuesday. Most meals can be made more or less metabolic-health-friendly without changing the meal. My big 3 focuses is protein, fiber and veggies... that usually nidhes the recipe were i need it for myself most of the time. That’s it. Simple systems really do change everything. Would a meal planning implementation workshop be of interest?
