In the past few months, I've been frustrated with my weight loss on the Trim Healthy Mama plan.
Healing takes time & rest.
I LOVE the Trim Healthy Mama plan. It works but my circumstances worked against weight loss. The scheduled free styling menu below plus increasing my activity level is how I have managed to get the scale moving in the right direction again and I'm slowly loosing weight once more. Go back and read how I have gained since August for the whole story.
Below is Week #1's menu. I did 3 weeks of the scheduled free styling and now I'm taking 2 weeks off.
It was time. Being so strict it made me want to cheat more. Not a good place to be.

Weekends are crazy around here and I find it easier to just free style and switch it up. Make sure to have AT LEAST one low-glycemic carb meal or snack each day! As you can see I used recipes from the THM book and just basic foods. Nothing crazy or special.
Many of these recipes are on my pinterest boards. The recipes with page numbers are from the THM book.
Week #2's menu are coming!
