What I’m Eating This Week, May 15th 2023
I used to share this more regularly here on the blog, and I’m excited to start giving you a glimpse into my eats each week! Planning my meals is HANDS DOWN one of the most important things you can do to see results in your nutrition and health! Currently, I am eating based on simple macros and staying within my calorie goals for a little weight loss.
In order to lose weight, you must be in a calorie deficit, but I don’t recommend being in too much of one, because your metabolism will REVOLT, and it will be harder to lose any weight you need to. After another few weeks, I will return to my needed daily caloric intake to start building muscle!
