Nerd Fitness Academy - Week #1 Meal Planning

It's a pain in the ass to plan a meal every single night.  So I'm going to try to take care of this week's planning in one fell swoop.


I have all the groceries already at home.  Now it's planning and execution.

If I can get through this week successfully, I'll knock out a couple of big NFA quests and build some good momentum.

 I don't have to be perfect.  But if I plan and prepare well and put myself in a position to do well, then I'll be optimistic about the week as a whole.  A lot of these days are flexible, with a couple of exceptions.
 
Each of these days aims to reach 2,700 calories, my main quest I aim to accomplish this week.  Won't worry too much about exercise - if this works, then that'll be a big step on its own.  (Though I will try to get back into walking.)
