I’ve been a THM veteran now for over 2 years. I’ve made this my life style for sure .
The sisters created an awesome tool for us to try if we have been on the plan over 3 months and are stalled out. A FUEL CYCLE!! If you go to Chapter 28 (page 429) you will see the benefits of the FUEL CYCLE! Helping you focus more on the good fats is one of the keys to getting your weight moving again.
If you would like more info on this book go check out their store with my affilate link–>Trim Healthy Mama<– if you choose to purchase through my affilate link, thank you… you are helping support my blog! 🙂
In my THM journey I’ve done 3 Fuel Cycles with wonderful results!
Soooooo without further ado, here is my One Week THM Fuel Cycle Menu for you to try out! I’ve included page numbers for recipes from the book. Others, I’ve given a general idea. One thing I would say is to take advantage of foods that you can eat in each meal type like the Not-So-Naughty Noodles (which you can purchase through the link above). I tried those noodles today for the first time and am IN LOVE with them! Enjoy!

Baked blueberries oatmeal? Cant find it in the book…. recepie please?
I use one from Jennifer Griffin’s http://www.ahomewithpurpose.com site!! She has a great one for baked blueberry oatmeal!!
I am going to do this, thank you for the menu it looks really simple and I thankful for that!
You are so welcome!
Do you have recipe for Ham and Egg pocket? Is this just an omelet ?
Thank you so much for this and all your wonderful recipes!
OH you bet!! 🙂
Hi,
This menu looks great, thank you so much for posting. I just have one request, would you mind explaining the “ham & eggs pockets”
THX
Lori
You are so welcome!! Ham pockets are simply ham slices, pressed down in greased muffin tins with sautéed veggies and an egg inside of each, then baked… I need to put these up on my blog! 🙂
Hi Sarah
Thank you for sharing your FP weekly plan. Question: with the ham pockets, what would you consider a serving, one or two? This is where I’m lost as to how much is the right proportion.
thank you
Hi! I’m looking into a fuel cycle and came here because we (Texans) love your recipes! Just wondering if you have an updated version now that the new cookbook is out?
Yes, I will work on that for sure!! I will be giving a Cookbook review and giveaway soon!!
I’ve been stalled out for a while now…hoping this helps break the cycle!! Thanks!!
Thanks you for this! I have been on plan for almost a year but have been stalled for a few months. I wanted to try a fuel cycle, but wanted some menu ideas. This menu has helped so much!
You’ve got some great ideas on here…If these were the only things I ate for 5 days, I’d be so hungry though! How can I get my weight loss moving again and still eat a little more? I know some people can make it on 3 meals and snack, but I cannot… especially if my meal is something like the fat-stripping frappa. I think I’d be physically sick from hunger within 2 hours or less. 🙁 I sometimes am up at 4:45 to get to the gym, so end up needing two breakfasts (or a hearty snack and a meal) before I leave for work at 9:30…. and even then, sometimes can’t make it until my 12:30 lunch break without another snack. Thoughts?
I think you might need to add more lettuce bulk or vegetable bulk in there to fill your up! That would help give you more bulk with out taking you out of the Fuel Cycle Mode!!
I can’t wait to try this! Ham pockets sound delicious!
what recipe do you use for the Chicken stir-fry?
I kind of make it up as I go!
I am getting ready to try my first fuel cycle and the sample menu is a great help. I do have one question though. In the plan book it says to do 2 deep S, 2 E days, 2 FP days and then finish with another deep S. Your menu does not follow this pattern. Have I overlooked something (which I am known to do!)?
Yes, this went off of the very first thm book! I need to update it!
