Meals are prepped and I am ready to rumblllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee🥦🫐🍌🥑
I started meal prepping almost 9 years ago when I was making changes to my nutrition to overcome postpartum + lose 40 lbs. I knew that nutrition was medicine to my body and planning out my meals is what helped me stay on track with my food while mommying 3 under 5. I also teach my clients how to meal prep and provide them example meal plans every week.
Meal prep has become a lifestyle. We cook our food on Sunday, store it in big containers, and just eat what we want throughout the week. Well, when I was selected to be a part of a pilot fitness test group a few weeks ago, I knew I had to UP my game in the nutrition department, so I am back to pre-sorting my meals so I can be super dialed into the foods I am fueling my body with for this test group.
I know for most, meal prepping can be overwhelming so here are✌tips on prepping:
Keep it simple. Pick 2 proteins, 2 carbs, 2 veggies, 2 fruits to prep for the week and stick with that. You can get fancy after you are comfortable with prepping your food.
Make a plan. When are you going to go grocery shopping? When are you going to prep your food? Having a plan is everything when it comes to meal prepping.
Do you meal prep? What is your fav thing to cook?
