Why Meal Prep Is So Important?

It’s no doubt that takeaways and processed foods are an easy option for meals. The advantage of not having to cook or clean can be an attractive thought.

 

This is why meal prepping is one of our biggest tips at Tammy Fit. The accessibility of having pre made healthy food available to eat at any time makes maintaining a healthy lifestyle that much easier. 

 

We share our favourite ways to meal prep below and all of the benefits!

 

  • Cut up all of your vegetables and protein at the start of the week so that when it comes to cooking, all you need to do is add to a pan. 

 

  • When prepping, aim for 50% of your plate to be filled with vegetables, 25% with starchy carbs and 25% protein. Perfect for volume eaters!

 

  • Prep the meals you find hardest to stay on track, for example, when your insulin levels drop in the afternoon you have them at the ready instead of grabbing something naughty.
