It's so weird how calories don't seem to count in December, but love that for us. The truth is, after weeks of holiday parties from Thanksgiving to Noche Buena and indulgent dinners, when January rolls around, everyone is ready for a restart. We are here because we wanted to help you create a meal plan that will get your year off on the right foot, and hopefully help you find recipes that you love so you can stick to it. Below you are going to find a 2 Week Meal Plan that we prepared for you. The idea is keep things simple and stress free, but most importantly take some of the decisions off your plate.
