This weeks meal plan continues carb cycling. My class schedule has changed a little and our cardio workouts aren't always falling on our higher carb/higher calorie days but we're going to keep up the cycling for a while longer. It does mean an extra carb snack gets added on those cardio days but I'm not one to turn down a snack anyway.
This week's meals are all pretty simple and use some leftover dinner meals for lunches. I'll fix the pork tenderloin toward the end of the week and those leftovers will be incorporated into next week's meal plan. The produce at our grocery store didn't look that great so this week's fruit will be mostly apples, bananas, a fresh pineapple, and berries from the freezer.
