Prepping for school and a successful week

As school is approaching, I think I'm going to cut these posts down a little to maybe 2-3 times per week, with maybe a bonus post if something exciting happens. Does that sound good?

This past week started and ended quickly. I spent one day completely moving myself from one end of the building to the other into a new classroom. I was super happy to do this because now I can get some work done each day and I feel I will have more productivity this year due to not having weights being slammed down every few minutes. I will be much calmer and more at ease each day. Last year was a nightmare for my productivity. Each day, I just left after school without doing much prep work for the next day, leaving me way too stressed the next morning. I will actually get to have a quiet work environment each day and can actually get some work done after school! I'm so excited for this! Can't wait for this year!

Friday started my classroom prep work. I made some good headway and will finish tomorrow--pics to come soon after the room is finished! I plan on making it as magical as I can! Haha! I've got lots of posters and I plan on filling it with student work too. I also want to have a senior wall for all the pics of my graduating and graduated seniors. I've got a small collection going already and can't wait to build on it. It's going to be a masterpiece!


Another prep I'm doing is to dial in my nutrition for the week. Since it's been summer, I've been enjoying the last few days of beer and snacks and whatnot. I need to stop that now. It's holding me back in my results and I need to refocus. Routine is happening again and so will meal prep Sunday. I just got done working on my lunches for the next 2 days. I know I will be tempted to go out to lunch with teach friends that I never get to visit with during the school year but I must hold strong. Tomorrow will be easy because it's just a work day and I have no plans to go out with anybody. I plan on just making it a working lunch.

My menu for tomorrow:
Breakfast: my Shakeology with a piece of fruit and peanut butter whole wheat wrap
Snack: Cottage cheese with grapes and almonds and Beachbar
Lunch: Mixed salad with 2 hard boiled eggs and zesty Italian dressing
Snack: Beachbar
Dinner: Veggie Stir fry with chicken (maybe with some brown rice but haven't decided yet)

**All of these things will be portioned out with my color-coded portion containers to fit my meal plan. I'm determined to crush my nutrition for the last 4 weeks of my program. By the way, I fully plan on doing another round of this program because it is THAT AWESOME. If you want in on it, let me know and I can get you in my accountability group! 

As it's getting to my bedtime now, I'll leave you with these words:
Fail to plan, plan to fail.
