Success after IF

Food for thought...

Literally. I'm kind of in a dinner rut and Pinterest just isn't cutting it. Would anyone be interested in a weekly meal/food check-in? I've been trying to eat healthier and I want some new ideas. I know a lot of us like to cook (and some of us hate it, but have to do it anyways). I also know that some of you have specific diets (paleo, vegan, even weight watchers), so it'd be fun to hear about it!

The one thing I'm not sure of is if this should be sort of a weekly meal plan menu check-in or more of a healthy/weight loss check-in. Maybe a bit of both? Or maybe it's something no one is interested in! Thoughts??

Re: Food for thought...

  • penny that's funny i almost posted something similar yesterday - i am interested in doing both an "adult" meal check in and possible a LO meal check in. i feel like there are a lot of ideas on here for both quick/easy meals for parents and some interesting finger foods/puree ideas for babies that I never thought of (e.g. chickpeas! genius haha). Anyway, i'd be all for it! i've done the salmon-rice-broccoli combo so many times i think dh is starting to hate it!
