Pecan Crusted Pork Chops & This Week's Meal Plan

Today I started phase 2 of ChaLEAN Extreme.  This happens to be perfect timing for me.  With these workouts I will push past my comfort zone and see what I'm actually capable of accomplishing.  During this month of the program, we are focusing on lifting heavier weights, one body part at the time so that we can focus on building strength.  And as women, we have to remember that we will not get bulky from lifting slightly heavier weights.  What we will do with heavier weights is increase our metabolism and build muscle to tighten, tone and reshape our bodies!

You guys will also notice that my meal plans are very similar each week.  This is simple for me and is the easiest way for me to stay on track.  We each have to find what works for us.

Wednesday night, we're having one of my favorites!  And it's so simple to make.
