Instead, you race into the kitchen with no clue what to make. You throw something together that fills your hunger hole, but it doesn&#8217;t meet your craving for nurture and nourishment. It&#8217;s all very frustrating and disappointing.\u00a0 Eventually you make it through another meal&#8211;but only to face the ordeal again tomorrow, and the next day and the next.\u00a0 Here is the way Claire explained it:<\/h3>\r\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>&#8220;When I plan, I don&#8217;t feel the stress\/frustration of getting home and not having a plan to make something filling, tasty and healthy.\u00a0 I&#8217;m always trying to hit those marks with every meal, but when I don&#8217;t plan ahead, I usually eat something that is not filling enough, not particularly tasty or interesting and not very good for me.&#8221;<\/em><\/h3>\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Are you ready to make planning happen<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">so you can make healthy meals happen?<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #d91900;\">Plan-Togethers &#8212; Support and Accountability<\/span><\/h5>\r\n<h3>Think of plan-togethers like a support group and accountability buddy, all in one. Creating and taking a space of time is the hardest part of planning your meals. Plan-Togethers automatically gift you with the time to think ahead and plan &#8212; and make it a regular habit.<\/h3>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #d91900;\">Habit-Forming<\/span><\/h5>\r\n<h3>Interestingly, planning meals isn&#8217;t difficult&#8211;it&#8217;s much the same as planning your day, a vacation, a work project or a social outing. The only difference is that planning for meals just isn&#8217;t a regular fixture in our lives, something we do normally, no big deal. That&#8217;s the point of regularly scheduled Plan-Togethers: They provide the space and opportunity to make this critical practice a surprisingly joyful routine that you just do, without stressing over or struggling with it.<\/h3>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #d91900;\">Expert Help<\/span><\/h5>\r\n<h3>Need a little help getting started or figuring out knotty mealtime challenges?\u00a0 You&#8217;ll get my expert advice based on my 27 years of planning healthy meals to deal with varied tastes, food allergies and health needs.

Time to start doing something about your weight? Or about your health? Maybe it&#8217;s the unforgiving years that keep accumulating. Maybe it&#8217;s the limitations you&#8217;re starting to notice. Maybe it&#8217;s getting tired and running out of energy all the time, not being able to sleep at night, or just not feeling like doing much anymore.<\/h3>\r\n<h3>Don&#8217;t wait!<\/h3>\r\n<h3>Eating better is one of the three most effective actions you can take to turn things around. Replace the processed sugars, flours and fats in our diet with lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and good proteins and fats.<\/h3>\r\n<h3>It&#8217;s such an easy and powerful elixir&#8211;as long as you start by planning. Don&#8217;t think you can just stroll into the kitchen at 5:30 and make a health-giving meal without thinking, planning and shopping ahead. Instead, you&#8217;ll end up making the same old things you always make&#8211;and that you don&#8217;t want to be making or eating anymore.<\/h3>\r\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #d91900;\">Put yourself on the road to success by planning for it!<\/span><\/h5>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #609c00;\"><strong>What Others Are Saying from the 5-Week Meal Planning Workshop<br \/><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<h3><span class=\"other-text\">&#8220;I think Plan-Togethers are a great idea for group support to build the planning habit and share ideas!&#8221; <\/span><\/h3>\r\n<h3><span class=\"other-text\">&#8220;Very thoughtful and thought provoking material.

doesn&#8217;t mean you are making tasty and wholesome meals on a regular basis.\u00a0 Good cooks very often run into many of the same barriers as less experienced cooks &#8212; which is why the meal planning habit is critical for all levels of cooks.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><strong><span style=\"color: #fa6d2b;\">Are the Two Monthly Sessions the Same?<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>At the outset, yes the two sessions will feature the same recipe themes and content.\u00a0 But for no extra cost, you can take advantage of the motivation and immense benefits of planning twice per month instead of just once.\u00a0 In the future, we hope to offer two different sessions to add ever more interest to your meal times.<\/p>\r\n<h3><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><em><span
