More Meal Prep Ideas..........
Saturday, January 16, 2016
Why
The other night I had something to do. Several weeks ago I was a part of a Team Call and it was suggested that we all sign up and take a week. I had a moment of bravery and YES, SIGN ME UP. In my brain I thought....."I'll read a new book and come up with something really profound and tell these ladies something they have never heard." Well, let's just say that life happens. I never made it to get a book that would have something profound. I never read anything. A few days of total panic set in. My thoughts......"I'm leading Team Call with Diamond Coaches.....I have nothing new to share" .... "What in the world was I thinking!?" ...."I don't have anything to tell them....I'm new at being a Coach!"
 |
| (This is what a Team Call feels like!) |
Well, let's just say I got myself together. I got my thoughts together and I DID IT! It was not hard and I will actually probably do it again. Bottom line.....I do have something to share. I may just be getting started but I Can Do This BECAUSE I know my WHY and I have an incredible bunch of women and men that continually encourage me to do more and to step out of my comfort zone.
So......WHY? Why am I a Beachbody Coach? Why do I invest my time and energy into other people? Why do I get on a Team Call with other Coaches once a week to share and to learn? Let me explain. I want you to understand where I'm coming from. In order for you to understand who and what I do, you will need to read a little further.
I started with a Challenge Group about 3 years ago. A friend who was a Coach simply reached out and asked me if I would be in her Challenge Group. I said yes and I had no idea what I was going to do. IT CHANGED EVERYTHING!!!! One lead to another that lead to another and another. It was absolutely amazing!!!! I became stronger, leaner, lost weight, and felt WONDERFUL!!!! After doing this for several years I finally decided it was time for me to give back. It was time for me to step up and help others. I want YOU to experience what I have. I want YOU to be healthy. I want YOU to step up and help others.
I chose to do this because.....I have family history of Coronary Artery Disease, Atrial Fib, Breast Cancer, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes type 2 and I have made the choice ......to break the chain. I want to equip myself and my family to do everything possible to be healthy, fit and active. What about you? What chain do you want to break? Let's do this together!!!
Looking forward to hearing from you!!!!!
Blessings,
Coach Pam

What's For Dinner
Meal Prep
Mass Cooking
Monthly Cooking
Crockpot Cooking
WHATEVER you want to call it!!!
I recently ran a Facebook Event. It was really a lot of fun for me! I only hope everyone else enjoyed it as much as I did. It was Great!!! It was a real step out of my comfort zone! I chose to post lots of pictures and explanations.
I thought I would share it here as a reference for you if you are in need of ideas. It's very simple. Takes about 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon and BOOM!!!!!! You are finished for the week and you have an answer for the question that comes EVERY DAY......WHAT'S FOR DINNER!!??????
Meal Prep How To-Part 1
The most important part is to figure out what you and your family will eat. There is absolutely NOTHING worse than spending 2 precious hours preparing for the week to find out that your family doesn’t like this or that. Trust me, I speak from experience on that!
Another thing to keep in mind is that you may choose to make extra to put in individual portions in the freezer and use them for grab n go lunches or a busy weeknight if you didn’t Meal Prep the weekend before.
So, before we get started, I wanted to tell you why I do this. I found out about 4 years ago that Meal Prep (Ashley Burr Overby and I called it Mass Cooking) was working really well for our family. Basically I prepared the Main Dish of the meal for the rest of the week and most of the time would re-invent it somewhere along the way during the week. You can do this for lunches for the week. You can do it for dinners for the week. If you want to, you can do it for both. It’s actually not that hard. I would actually encourage to give it a go.
Here is what on my list for this Sunday……
Meatballs
Taco Meat
Baked Chicken
Quinoa flavored with Low Sodium Chicken Broth
Chili in the Crockpot
Roasted Veggies
Diced and Prepped Veggies
Dip
Boiled Eggs
Yes, we will get it done in 2 hours……..Stay Tuned!!!!!! Pick your favorites and we will get started on Sunday afternoon!!!!!
