Hey guys. I wanted to give more value to your health and fitness journey, so I started a health blog. Hope you like the first one. Enjoy.
Dieting is hard! I Can't find the time! It's too much work. These are some of the things I hear often from clients. If losing weight was simple then everyone would look amazing and be happy in their skin.
So to make things easier for my clients I give them this 1 simple tip. Meal Preps.
Meal prepping is a great way to stay on track with your healthy eating goals, especially when you're trying to lose weight. By planning and preparing your meals in advance, you can save time, reduce stress, and ensure that you're eating nutritious foods that support your weight loss goals.
Here are five simple meal prep tips to help you lose weight:
1) Use a meal prep service
If you're short on time or don't enjoy cooking, using a meal prep service can be a great option. There are many companies that offer healthy, pre-made meals that are tailored to your dietary needs and preferences. Simply choose your meals for the week, and they'll be delivered to your door ready to eat or heat up. This can be a great option if you're too busy to cook or if you want to try new recipes without the hassle of grocery shopping and cooking. My clients do a search and find the one company that is affordable and meets their needs.
2) Create a grocery list
Before you go grocery shopping, create a list of the foods you need for your meal prep. This will help you stay focused and avoid impulse buys that can sabotage your weight loss efforts. Try to choose a variety of healthy foods, including lean protein, vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. You can also consider batch-cooking staples like rice, quinoa, and roasted vegetables that you can use in multiple meals throughout the week. And whatever you do, DO NOT go grocery shopping hungry.
3) Choose easy recipes
When you're meal prepping, it's essential to choose recipes that are easy to make in bulk and that can be stored easily. One-pot meals, casseroles, and sheet pan dinners can be great options since they require minimal prep and cooking time. You can also consider making a large batch of soup, chili, or stew that can be stored in the fridge or freezer for later. I'm a gadget freak, Instant pots, air fryers, and sous-vide are all part of my meal preps. Try them out.
4) Invest in quality storage containers
To keep your meal prep organized and easy to grab and go, invest in quality storage containers. Look for containers that are microwave-safe, leak-proof, and BPA-free. You can also consider using glass containers since they're durable and can be used in the oven or freezer. Having a variety of sizes and shapes can also be helpful, so you can portion out your meals according to your needs. I personally buy a set from Costco and only use those. I hate trying to find the proper lid for my container.
5) Schedule your meal prep time
To make meal prepping a habit, schedule a specific time each week to do it. Choose a day and time that works best for your schedule, and make it a priority. You can also consider involving family members or friends to make it more enjoyable and to share the workload. Remember, the more you make it a habit, the easier it will become, and the more successful you'll be in achieving your weight loss goals. Sunday is my meal prep day. It's nice and quiet, and my chores and errands are done so from there I meal prep that way I'm ready for the week.
In conclusion, meal prepping is an excellent tool for weight loss, but it doesn't have to be complicated. By following these five simple meal prep tips, you can make healthy eating a habit and achieve your weight loss goals in no time. As I always say, easy peasy nice, and breezy
