Sounds like a good meal plan! :D I wouldn't worry about the scale too much. I reckon that many of us find that it goes up some for a day or so after the weekend due to the added sodium, sweets, etc. I find that if I stick with my meal plan during the week, it lowers and drops as the weekdays pass by.
