    I meal prepped because I won’t buy fast food if I have food cooked already at home. I do the online Walmart grocery shopping and don’t buy junk food, that way it’s not in the house. I only drink water, my wife will drink pop still.

    I always scour YouTube for videos of what healthy meals people are cooking and try to replicate them. I limit my red meat intake but that’s only because I love chicken a lot more than red meat. I also hate the smell of raw meat cooking, it turns my stomach.

    I also have veggies with my meals and eat them first that way if I’m full I had all the healthier food first.

    Love your tips! I am amazed you went from not cooking at home to meal prepping. It literally saved your life! Also like the idea of on-line shopping, you avoid any temptations. It's incredible that you basically just TOOK CHARGE of your life. Well done to the both of you.

    I loved cooking but I had grand illusions of what was actually healthy. I just assumed if it was home cooked it was healthy. Our favorite meal was splitting a pound of pasta with hot sausage ground up in the sauce. Tasted fantastic but doing the math it was like over 3k calories.
