Hi everyone! I am so excited to be a part of The Kayla Movement and officially start (re-start in my case) Kayla Itsines bikini body training guide on Monday, 5th January. In preparation for the coming week, I thought it would be useful for you and for myself to plan down what I will be eating this week. Useful for me because it will help me plan what to buy at the supermarket and give me structure to my week, and useful for you because I hope it will inspire you to try out some new meals and/or give you some guidance if you are new to making healthy meals. My Healthy on the Cheap article is also a great resource to planning healthy meals on a budget.

These meals have all been inspired by Kayla Itsines HELP nutrition guide (disclaimer: affiliate link which helps me pay for Honestly Fitness) and the Clean and Lean philosophy books by James Duigan.

I have decided not to plan anything just yet for the weekend to allow for flexibility in case I want to meet up with a friend for some food. I tend to meet friends for dinner so will usually have make breakfast and lunch similar to the ones I have planned above.

Also, as you can see, I repeat a lot of meals and snacks to make sure I do not waste any of the foods that I have bought. I also buy frozen shrimp and tilapia as it is much more economical and last ages. I buy fresh chicken but I freeze any chicken breasts that will not get used within the next 3 days and thaw them as needed. I also buy frozen green beans and corn (I buy a lot of frozen things don’t I?!). I tend to do groceries twice a week or more as needed so I do not waste any food or buy more than I need.

What are you planning to eat/make for this week?
