Life Happens: Why a Smart Meal Plan Matters

Life can be wonderfully unpredictable, bringing both joyful celebrations and unexpected challenges. Just recently, we’re finally hosting a little birthday party for my daughter for the first time in three years – a truly special occasion! I still carry some “PTSD” from 2020 when we had to cancel her party on the very day it was planned. Now, many of the same girls are almost teens, and my husband and I are comically bracing ourselves for what that might entail! But seeing my daughter so excited about our escape room and ice cream outing makes my heart full. This personal anecdote highlights how a well-structured meal plan can be a lifesaver, providing a sense of normalcy and control even amidst life’s delightful chaos.

On another note, the weather here today is unexpectedly hot – over 70 degrees! This sudden burst of warmth has me absolutely craving fresh veggies and vibrant spring and summer salads. This new meal plan is directly inspired by today’s weather, though whether it will stick around remains to be seen! Adapting to what our bodies crave, and what the season offers, is a key part of healthy eating.

In these times when everyone seems to be getting sick, having comforting and healthy options on hand is crucial. If you find yourself needing a nourishing lunch option or a soothing meal, consider our Easy Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup. It pairs perfectly with this plan, especially since there’s typically a .5 yellow container allowance to utilize on a few days, making it an ideal carb addition. Alternatively, our Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup is another fantastic and flavorful choice. These versatile soup recipes ensure you’re prepared for anything, keeping your wellness goals on track.

Unlocking the Full Potential of Your Meal Plan

We believe that successful meal planning should be as simple and intuitive as possible. That’s why we’ve pre-loaded all five dinners and a delicious breakfast from this plan into a user-friendly meal planning spreadsheet, available for you here. All you need to do is add in your preferred lunches and snacks to complete your week. This dynamic spreadsheet is incredibly flexible: if you choose not to follow the plan exactly, or if certain ingredients are hard to find, simply swap them out! The container counts will automatically adjust, taking the guesswork out of tracking your portions. To use it, just click the link, make a copy when prompted, and save it to your computer (note: it might not function as smoothly on a mobile phone).

For those who prefer a more traditional approach, we also offer a handy 21 Day Fix Meal Planner PDF. This printable tool allows you to track your containers and water intake with a pen and paper, providing a tangible way to monitor your progress throughout the week. Many find this method incredibly helpful for staying accountable and visualizing their daily intake.

If you’re following the 2B Mindset program, we’ve got you covered too! Utilize this dedicated 2B Mindset spreadsheet tracking tool to easily record your meals. It’s designed to be super simple yet highly effective for electronically tracking your food and getting a quick, clear overview of your week. To access it, click the link, make a copy, and save it to your computer (again, phones may not offer the best experience). Then, you can begin your daily or weekly tracking with ease!

We truly hope you have a delicious and well-planned week ahead!
