I'm starting my cut today. Any advice or tips on how to not get bored with the nutrition? I've got my supplements down but I feel like I'll get bored with food.

    Why would you get bored with food? You eat the same food as you would normally, just less of it. You eat foods you like to fit your goals....you might make swaps to feel more satisfied/satiated, but that doesn't mean your food needs to be bland or boring.

    I'm starting my cut on Monday. I get really bored too, I usually just base my meals around a protein source and go from there and switch it up best I can. I started to meal prep and freeze because there is no way I can eat the same thing 5 days in a row, usually a protein so that I can just add my veggies and sides. So far I made Chicken with lentils, turkey meatballs, baked chicken breast and protein waffles. I also bought frozen cooked shrimp to add to salads, canned tuna and salmon and lots of frozen veggies (broccoli, spinach, kale, green beans).

    Lol, getting "cut" will usually mean boring food. That's just how it works. When I used to prep for contest, it was basically the same food every day, same eating times, etc.

    Maybe I just make tasty food.... I can eat the same thing for days and not get bored! Each meal in the day is different though.
