One of our favorite quotes when it comes to improving your nutrition and losing fat is:
"By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail." - Benjamin Franklin
This couldn't be more true when it comes to working towards your health and fitness goals.
One simple area that has the biggest impact on our Nutrition Coaching Members is getting them to have a plan of action prepared ahead of time.
We've all been there.
You're running around like crazy.
Work, carting the kids around, errands, meetings, parties, etc. -- it doesn't end.
You want to eat well but now you're starving and stressed.
Instead of preparing and eating food that will have a positive impact on your fat-loss, energy, and overall health, you grab what is most convenient and will satisfy your hunger quickly.
Because you're so hungry, you also eat too fast and end up overeating.
With better planning, we can avoid these situations!
Also, by simply preparing your own meals you're bound to take in less calories.
Most food companies and restaurants are more interested in how their food tastes rather than the nutritional content.
By prepping and eating your own meals you are in control of preparation and will know exactly what you're eating, avoiding the excessive portion sizes, and calorie additives like salt, fat, and sugar.
Today we have prepared a sample fat-loss meal plan and grocery list so you can better plan your meals and snacks for the week, drastically improve your consistency, and crush your goals!
These meals are geared to help you increase your energy and fuel your body to burn fat!
Enjoy :)
