So Fresh and So Lean, Lean

{And THAT, my friends, was this morning’s delivered-to-my-door breakfast from DeliverLean}

Last month, I found myself the tipping the scale and the heaviest I’ve been excluding my two pregnancies. Oh, the depression! So I rang up my personal trainer Massi to start working out again, and out of the clear blue sky, the peeps at DeliverLean reached out to help me lighten up, too, with their healthy food delivery service. Talk about serendipity. Funny how life works that way, eh?

The 411 on Deliver Lean? Think portion-controlled gourmet meals delivered directly to your door. There are several plans to choose from — Traditional, Paleo, Gluten-Free and HGC Diet — and I picked out the 5-day Traditional Meal Plan. Each meal contains 4 ounces of lean protein sources (such as fish, chicken, pork, beef and turkey), 2 to 4 ounces of high quality, complex carbohydrates (such as power grains like quinoa, beans or lentils) and 3 ounces of fresh fruits or vegetables. From ahi tuna, to banana pancakes to black bean burgers — the food is yum! And after a week on this plan, I’m down 4 pounds. Winning!

And I’ve got a special deal for you, loyal readers. You can score 2 days free with the purchase of a one-month plan ($7.95 per meal/3 meal minimum per day) which can be redeemed here.

If you’ve got the bikini blues, I encourage you to stop making excuses and make like a Nike tennis shoe and just do it!
