Meal prep im lost

All that is required for weight loss is a caloric deficit (eat less than you burn). Eat what you normally do, only less. There is a fantastic recipe section here to get some ideas on meals.

I suggest newcomers get used to weighing and logging first. At least for a week or two. Then you will know how many calories you are eating now.

Then with that knowledge, make changes.

It could be as simple as switching out fries with salad, or cutting a usual portion in half.

I usually meal prep on Sunday. When I started, I would bake up a whole pan of chicken breasts, steam a bunch of broccoli and green beans and roast some sweet potatoes. I bought some of the Glad or Ziploc containers & portioned everything out. I would use the chicken in different ways like in a salad, in a wrap, add it to pasta sauce, etc. It gets easier the more you do it. If I'm strapped for time, I just buy a rotisserie chicken & use that (after removing the skin). Once you get used to it, you'll be able to get everything ready much quicker & also want to add a little variety.

My go to meal prep that's easy is spiced ground turkey, which I'll serve on top of lettuce, tomato ( avocado, any veg really) and a couple tablespoons of mango salsa. All i'm really prepping is the turkey. In the morning I just throw a handful of bagged lettuce into a container, add the turkey and salsa. Done. Or if you want to heat up the turkey put it in a separate container so you're not heating up your lettuce as well.

Or you can top the spiced turkey on rice, add some steamed broccoli with some shredded cheese.

Snacks to include in your lunch for in between meal nibblings: boiled eggs, cheese sticks, yogurt, apples. All pretty low call and high in protein to keep you satisfied
