Cheap And Healthy Meals For The Week, Done In 1 Hour

1. i do mealprep since 8 years and let me tell you – this is impossible to do in 1hour for a beginner. AND don’t forget the whole mess which you need to clean up in between! I Love this video since it gives excellent inspiration – but you should include some realistic advice like:
   – start with two simple different meals from which one needs no cooking at all and a simple not prepped breakfast.
   – those two meals are not calculated in any way – it’s just food you like and meant to get you into it, start easy. You can calcualte everything through next time you do it
   – cook 6-10meals and DO NOT eat anything else or let anybody else eat it 😀
   – always take taste as a priority. ALWAYS. You won’t keep on doing it if it’s “just healhy”

   Advice for later on:
   – keep a small book in which you note down your calculated meals so you wont need to do it over and over…
   – rice cooker is nice – but if you don’t have one look up how to properly cook rice (tastes better and is easier)
   – in tough times (examphase, stress on workplace…) prioritise on “soul-food” but calculated meals – you wont get fat no worries and this is way better than just throwing the “too healthy” ones away and go for fastfood.
   – always plan where you’r going to eat the meals, some places have no microwaves so better prep something you enjoy to eat cold, too. 🙂
   – don’t believe that those hollywood-bodybuilders gain all the mass through food&dedication. Yes – they put hard work into workout&food, but most of them are “big” due to drugs. You will not get as big as them.

   Advice for later later on:
   – keep a list in which you note down how much of something you need to be satisfied. For exmaple thats 70g rice or 95g Spaghetti or 100g chicken for me. It’s way easier to calculate your meals through if you know a few numbers already.
   – prep some “smal meals” and some “bigger meals” for workout days. This way you wont starve on workout days (which ultimately leads to you eating stuff you didn’t wanted to).
   – leave a small amount of calories for a chocolate bar or something similar – you’ll love it

   I hope you enjoy mealprep as much as i do, it’s easy and convenient. 🙂
