Happy Sunday ABF
Hope you are enjoying your weekend. Sunday for a lot of people is now football Sunday...for others it's time to relax but for everyone it should be to food prep!!
For some people this can be a lot of work, for some people this might seem impossible...but the truth is...
It's really simple.
Let me walk you though this easy process.
First you need to know how much food you should be eating. If you are not sure then we should meet very soon to get real numbers for you.
But for the easiest way, you should be eating every 3 hours give or take.
About 30 minute after you wake up should be meal #1
Now, get yourself a rice cooker if you don't have one (makes rice cooking a lot easier)
Oh...you don't eat rice? You are cutting carbs out cause you need to burn fat?
Sorry to bust your bubble...that alone won't work.
Ok..Start your rice cooking, at the same time put 3-4 pounds of chicken/fish/steak in the oven to cook. Season at your taste...but go for healthier options
You can >>>AT THE SAME TIME<<< bake or boil some veggies.
This will all take less than an hour
Now it's time to pack
SIMPLE!
But maybe you like more variety...maybe you want more options
Then it's is the same formula and just a little more WORK
Of course then we have to address COST $$$$$
Looks very very expensive to purchase and prep all this food
5lbs of Dry Rice cost $2.50-3.50
You can cook 20-24 cups of cooked rice from this
Now protein and veggies...I did a little price comparison (Publix, Whole Foods, and Fresh Market):

SO...Rice, 1 dozen eggs, 2lbs of chicken, half pound steak, 3 pound of raw veggies
$22-$26 for 1 week of food (give or take) it should be less
So..about $25 and about an hour to an hour and a half of your time.
Is it really and I can't?
Sure there is more...protein shakes, other carbs...but he basics...can be done with that.
HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY!!!
