Daily meal prep

>>40224966
You don't have to eat plain food. Just learn to cook and you'd be surprised at the things you can eat.

Cooking a weeks worth of food is the lazy mans way.

I stopped with meat pies at work
If i have to ill get a servo sandwich,

I don't think jaundiced is a natural skin tone. Sorry.

>>40225109
Yeah I should stop, but I'm also bulking so I figure it's not so bad. What type of sandwich? I normally go egg and lettuce if I'm picking one up.

>>40225237
lets see some evidence and logic?

you got any?

>>40224966
> Be me
> Prepare meat for 3-4 day in bulk, roughly 30 minutes with a LARGE skillet
> Use omelets/tuna cans as backup
> Every Meal prep time is (while cutting) canned veg (spinach, peas, beans) , cut an avocado, tomato or other veg, add fats (cheese, nuts, cream) - 5 mins max per meal.

> All_macros_are_hit.jpg

The key is to find good combinations of ingredients that taste good , require low prep time and you look forward to eating.

> TFW you spend more time washing dishes than actual prep.

>>40225355
or just eat fruit & veg no cooking no prep win win

>>40225355

And to finish this point, ate exactly the same thing for 3 months straight day in day out. Tasted great, looked forward to every meal.

>>40225372

Indeed anon, however... when you are cutting you really need to play tetris with your macros. Sometimes there's no room for fruit.

>>40225394

For cutting and if you do something like low carb, fruit is the first thing to go. It really depends on your macros.

Of course it's an edge case, but it exists. Just sayin'

>>40225410
come on man no body got fat eating fruit

cut the fat not the sugar

>>40224982

You try cooking when you commute, work, train, have a social life, a wife, kids and parents to spend time with and juggle inbetween with your PhD.

I meal prep because it's easier and I can just pop it in the microwave and hey presto I have my food, get back to doing work and save the precious time I'd otherwise spend daily cooking with family/friends.

But for those of you who don't work a ridiculous amount then it's fine. My PhD is cell culture based and cell cultures don't really look after themselves, the lab manager is only there for his projects, not mine. So you work as much as possible. 1 year to go until the thesis though... I hope.


So meal prep is good senpai, I've used it since I started 6 years ago and still do now. I cook meals with my wife now and then or my little brothers/sister, and I know how to cook a variety of dishes as I spent a lot of my childhood cooking.

You'd be surprised how useful meal prep is though for those who really need it.

>>40225400
you rich? mangos cost so much fucking money man.

>>40225432
yh its expensive but i value my health

fresh papias cost more

also meat is spensive

>>40225416

Nobody got fat by eating fat either, just exceeding calorie limits.

>>40225440
>>40225432

Mangoes cost £0.40 here lel

>>40225442
i tell u a secret

all calories are not created equal

no matter how much i eat i cant gain weight & i was former fatty

>>40225442

I did, because of my PCT. Fat will go to fat cells or be used for oxidation, eat less fat and expect less fat gains.
I've done numerous diets with high carb high protein when natural and low fat (just krill, fish, coconut oil & nuts at a low level), reaching 4000 kcals, in a +800 surplus, training 2x a day and made a +1kg fat gain according to MRI, and a +3kg increase in muscle mass within just under 3 months. Strength gains were meh/10, found them better with fat in my diet.

>>40225444

Buying fruit and veg by the piece is crazy in Quid-land...

>>40225469
i buy in bulk :D boxes and boxes

>>40225472

>>40225487
lol it was good only 1-2 meals tho

>>40225416

Am i the only one who genuinely dislikes sugar
Like i love starch but sugar is just cloying and tastes of nothing
Even flavoured whey and fruit are too sweet for me

>>40225507
but your body craves it

>>40225511

Not in my case
I get my carbs from pasta/rice

Even moderately sweet things just have that overbearing aspartame/condensed milk sweetness
Not a fan at all
I crave salt and meat more than sugar

Hours in the kitchen?

Chili takes me 30 minutes flat to cook. 5 of that prep. 10 minutes of active cooking, and then 10 of letting it simmer.

Dinner takes me 5 minutes of active cooking thanks to my rice cooker. That thing is a fucking godsend. Steams my veggies. Cooks me my perfect rice. All I have to do is not burn my chicken.

/thread
anyone with a life and purpose will meal prep, if you're just some blob going through the motions in life, then you don't need meal prep as you have nothing better to do than cook. (no sarcasm, I'm in the same boat kind of, doing basic science research biomed)

1 poop a week

>>40225524
i'm sort of in the same boat, except I don't crave the stuff but I'll eat and enjoy it if presented to me. Basically how my eating is going, I only have 2 sources of sugar, my triple zero yogurt and the raisins I put in my rice. But if you tell me to give up meat? I'll probably kill you and eat you.

wow so if i need 2000 calories to mantain my weight, i eat 1800 calories of pizza i'll lose weight, but if i eat 2200 calories of a well balanced diet but with a lot of fruits i'm gaining weight just because of 400 calories worth of apples and strawberries right?

>>40225807
eat all u like :D

you dont need 180g maybe half of that

I somewhat eat once a day. When I come back from work I cook a good healthy meal and munch away, keeps me full trough out my day. If cravings for a snack start to pop up I usually buy an orange or a salad. It been working miracles for me anon.

It's a counter to your argument for changing on the basis of environmental impact.

A good reason for not changing is that eating animals is a healthy and delicious way to get protein, nutrients, and calories.

>>40227523
you are wrong

you are old enough to know that

>>40227553
You are a liar and a fool. I can't believe you've made it this far in life doing as you do. kys

>>40227585
how where did i lie?

>>40227523
wasn't even my argument but you are still wrong..

if you can justify killing & torturing sentient being's for a sandwich that's up to you

I mostly prepare by soaking one or more of the following: lentils, beans, chickpeas, sunflowerseeds and or flaxseeds and then make something out of it in the morning, cut cabbage, carrots or whatever vegetables i have and mix it all to a sallad. I add some Golden Milk (mix of coconut oil, tumeric, black pepper and ginger. Highly recommend it. Works as food spice or mix it with water as an energy/anti inflammatory drink).

This is my lunch and/or dinner.
Im still developing and learning the food i eat but am leaning towards eating as raw as possible.

My workout meal is currently a banana mixed with flaxseeds, sunflowerseeds (or whatever seeds i have), psyllium and green tea. Gives great energy and is delish

>>40227585
its unnecessary

>>40227616
nice !!!

>>40226301
Both problems if you push hard enough

>>40227609
Torturing? Who said anything about torturing? I never torture any animal I eat.

Yes, I can kill sentient beings for a sandwich. I kill sentient beings every week. You ever kill a bug? Or a mouse?

My ancestors and I have been killing and eating animals for millions of years and I have no plans to stop now because you maintain a cognitive dissonance between the actions against a chicken, fish, or crab vs those against an insect or mouse.

>>40227656
>not eating the vermin you kill for bonus protein

I live in the US and buy locally raised grass-fed beef from a farmer who has the cow butchered. I see the cow before I buy it, and my family eats half a cow each year (we buy the half cow all at once). So in all, 1 cow feeds two families, and over a lifetime my eating of beef will have killed maybe a dozen cows.

I have never seen any cow appear to be suffering, and the butcher does a good job as far as I know (I've never asked to witness it, but he seems like a non-sadist).

If your problem is that the animals are mistreated, then why are you telling us to stop eating meat? If that's really the issue, then you should be pushing us to call our congressmen to push for stricter controls and regulations on meat production and for better conditions for animals.

But the mistreatment of animals isn't really the issue, is it? The real issue is you want an issue which lets you can feel better than everyone about. You want to be the good guy, the moral guy, the one doing the right thing, and best of all you want to shove it in other people's faces so you can ridicule them and feel better about yourself.

Get off your fucking high horse you arrogant, moralizing piece of shit.

When I cut I eat nothing but fat and protein.

>>40224966

All of my meals are 50% meat and 50% carbs. I don't eat any vegetables. How bad is that for my gains? I eat lots of fruits though.

>>40224966
Anyone here ever meal prepped minced meat? How does it taste after being frozen / in the fridge?

>>40228839
Minced meat holds up flavor very well for a long time, in the fridge or frozen. It doesn't diminish in taste or quality better than pretty much any other form.

The absolute worst for flavor are lightly seasoned chicken breasts. Microwave them the next day and they're gross blocks of rubber.

>>40225394
All i see is a shitton of sugar

>>40229255
All I see is Vitamin C, K, and Potassium, and good, filling calories.

>>40229228
Great thanks. How do you season your minced meat?

>>40225428
>complains about lack of free time
>is posting on 4chan
Nah you're just lazy.

>>40229609
>>40229228
Add water or a teaspoon of coconut oil on top of your chicken before you microwave it for maximum flavor and moistness.

Not that dude but as far as ground beef/chicken/turkey just drop SOME oil in a pan, brown some garlic/onions/green peppers and throw the meat in.

For ultra flavor season the meat with spices of your choosing or marinate for a couple hours in low calorie/sugar sauces.

My secret ingredients are soy sauce with red pepper flakes and a fresh herb like rosemary or thyme

>>40229296
>Pure sugar is good filling calories

Why would you waste calories on that shit instead of protein? Fuck out of here hippy

>>40225807
I get 180g per day on a vegan diet for less than 2700kcal.

>>40229876
I can get 200g of protein in less than half that many calories and no where near the sodium that your soy burger ass is ingesting.

Vegans are fucking cucks.

Technically you can just use pea/rice/soy protein isolate for everything and be as slim as a meat eater. It's all about choices really.

I use slim fast powder mixed in whole milk with a extra protein powder and fiber supplement mixed in. I do that for breakfast and dinner. For lunch I have a few real meals I roll out, for example today it was grilled boneless skinless chicken breast with lemon pepper and some broccoli that I also tossed on the grill for a bit.

But my plan is set up to loose weight, not something i'd be doing if I was working out a lot
