As part of our Lighten Up Weight Loss challenge, my husband and I promised to post what we eat daily. Most of the people in the challenge are going with the Advanced Plan so that is what we are following so everything listed is approved fare. Hopefully this will help people get additional meal ideas and to see how easy it is to apply to a busy life. (F=Fred and K=Kim)
