do /fit/ prep your meal or is it just a meme?

I cook every 3 days.
Tried cooking for 7 days before, it taste weird on the 4th day or maybe i did something wrong idk.

>>40757162
6 cups of chopped cabbage
2 cans of chicken
2 cups of shredded cheese
3/4 cup of bacon pieces
1/2 cup of tapatio

Every day.

>>40757179
don't you get sick of eating that everyday? and do you change menu?

>>40757162
Is that Ferrero Rocher in the top right container?

>>40757188

I fucking wish

>>40757162
yea, I cook once a week for lunch and dinner.
This week for dinner:
basic chicken, roasted veggies and brown rice
Lunch:
Chickpea, spinach, and beef curry

how much do you spend on your meal prep? was thinking starting next month and maybe 20-30$ a week

>>40757162
What is that in the left of the containers? And where can I buy little containers like that?

>>40757162
>>40757162
5k calories a day
Work out 5h a day
Run for 1h each day
Viking life style

I meal prep for Mon-Fri (monday night), because I have a solid weekday routine and also because over 4 days the food tastes funny.

Saturday I eat out, Sunday I buy food in and buy something different.

Meal preps great, I would not be able to stick to a diet without prepping it, fail to plan plan to fail.

>>40757186
Sometimes, I'll change it up a little and make alterations, but I prefer the consistency. I used to be a super fatass (obvious by the 2 cups of cheese, even now)

Now, I eat that, plus a 240c bag of trail mix (before the gym), 2 tbsp of sugar free metamucil before bed, 1 sugar free rockstar when I get up.

>>40757174
you're supposed to freeze it baka

>>40757211
Sweet, got any meal prep recipes?

Roast chicken, pulled beef and frittatas do well for me, but I'm looking to expand my menu as much as possible

>>40757162
If you literally eat the same thing every day, then it's definitely getting into meme-territory.

If you're changing up and have at least 6 different meals per season and cook according to what produce is in season then it's just smart.

Bonus points if you keep it relatively high protein and fat and keep at least half your daily carbs for before and after exercise.

>>40757249
I watch fit couple cook channel on youtube they have a lot of recipes

Yes meal prep makes cutting and bulking 10x easier and much cheaper.

Tray of chicken/turkey breast in oven.
Pan of rice on the go
30 minutes
4-5 days of meals ready.
Throw some wholegrain mustard/sundried tomatoes or whatever I feel like in the tubs.

>>40757300
Checking it out now, looks good anon.
Thanks for the tip fella.

Yeah, meal prep is easy.
This is what I got for lunch for the week.
nothing fancy, low calorie.

>>40757162

no

eating microwaved food should be illegal + i eat something new everyday or at the very least every other day.

>>40757162
Chili and sugar free banana bread gets me through the gaps of when I don't feel like cooking/getting take out.

>>40757422
If you have no job this a viable option, otherwise you're gonna have days when you're too tired to cook and will just end up getting Five Guys or KFC.

>eating microwaved food should be illegal
I'd almost second that, but using glass tupperware instead of plastic and microwaving on lower power makes it pretty bearable desu lad

>>40757431
>sugar free banana bread
recipe pls

>>40757162
I'm too whimsical. I don't want to meet someone who can eat the same thing seven days in a row on purpose. Be here now, anon.

I cook 3 meals every morning then Cooke post workout and dinner when I need them, I'd meal prep if I ate meat though most likely, but grains and shit taste could out of microwave

Meal prep is for lazy people with no taste.

>>40758995
Yes, people who aren't lazy just pick up fast food every day for lunch. Real smart.

>>40758995
>meal prep is for people with jobs*
FTFY

>>40757228
Literally any 1 dollar store

>>40757162
I meal prep once a week since I work long days and it's helpful to get a meal in

usually do some kind of stew, last week I made a chicken curry and this week lentil and beef stew

>>40757586
Literally banana bread with stevia, but bananas are loaded with sugar and bread is dense af

>>40757408
Friday chicken won't go bad?

I have a soft cooler I use and cook meals every 3 days and fill it with enough food to get me through till dinner that way I never buy food when I'm out and about and cheat because I have a cooler full of healthy shit in my jeep

>>40760762
Not that guy but it really doesn't

>>40757408
Do you subsist on < 1000 calories/day

>>40757179

Cans of chicken? Where do I obtain?

Wait, wouldn't preparing these six meals make them go to shit on the fourth day or so?

I always wanted to prep, but it seems like I'd have to do it every three days, and no the meme where some dude tells me he preps his meals for the next five days without them spoiling

>>40760762
Nope. Put it in the freezer if you're paranoid

>>40763580

thats food for 3 days tho

>>40763580
Have you ever heard of a freezer?

>>40761837
Do you live in the US? If yes, they'll be near cans of tuna in the grocery store. It kind of blew my mind that it existed as well.

>>40759226
>>40759242
Prepping food for meals is smart, cooking everything at once and eating the same thing everyday is lazy.

>>40757162
I prep lunches for the week, and eat a banana and peanut butter for breakfast every day, so that doesn't require any prep. I cook dinner every night when I get home, so it's super easy.

Lunches are usually either a salad, a hummus and guac with crackers and veggies, or a stew over some kind of grain. Super easy stuff.

>>40764100
I don't trust that shit. If you're getting that just do Sardines at that point

I cook up a bunch of chicken for my next three lunches. I don't bother with anything else, it's easy to grab some fruits and vegetables the morning of.

Help plx
With my new job with normal hours (mon-fri 7-3) I want to actually start meal prep. My job is meter reading so a lot of walking and I won't have access to a heat source. What's a good combo that can be eaten cold? I'm fine with cold chicken but cold rice sucks.

it takes me 50 minutes to cook 4-5 days worth of food (chicken and rice)
30 of which is shitposting on 4chan and waiting for chicken to cook

cooking every day is simply plain fucking retarded. it's like you don't even want to have time for anything during the day

fuck meal prep i dont leave my house so i just cook all my meals fresh

No because I have a bottomless stomach so if I cook 2kg of chicken and 4 cups of rice for 5 days I'll just eat it all over one day

>>40757162
How does this sound /fit/ bros?

Between 2pm and 9pm I have the following:

Oatmeal
2x Chicken Wraps with mixed peppers, salsa, bbq sauce
200g Oven cooked chicken with Broccoli, Carrots, Peas, Sweet Potato Fries

How healthy is this /fit/? Missing anything? I can't eat fruit and nuts.

>>40764954
It takes me 5 minutes of active time to cook that everyday and I don't have to eat shitty microwaved food everyday.

>>40757231
How do you get money?

>>40764945
>cold rice sucks
You suck.
Fuck you.

>>40757162

What foods do you prep on a bulk? I've been dousing my chicken and rice with olive oil. Looking for what's relatively cheap but still healthy.

>>40767723
While I'm prepping my meals for the week, CHARLIE is in the jungle eating cold rice and growing stronger.

Anyone got a rice cooker? I am looking to buy one with the automatic timer.

>>40757162
How do you make your chicken?

>>40768392
I want one so bad

>>40765412
instagram

>>40768392
I do. It's pretty god tier. Just flick a switch and it'll know how long to do it for based on the weight

>>40757162
no I eat random sandwiches and wraps from supermarkets most of the time desu
cannot be arsed with meal prepping and I'm still progressing at the same rate I would be if I did it

How the fuck is meal prep a meme?

Regardless, I do because work. I can spend a measly 2-3 hours prepping meals for a whole week and not have to worry about cooking.

This week's menu:

Breakfast: 4 scrambled eggs
Meal 2: miso chicken with kale/carrots and Freekah(grain), pictures.
Meals 3/4: chicken thighs with California belnd veggies and an ounce of Swiss cheese.
Snack: hot Italian sausage

Monday dinner will be cod, some nights I'll do a big salad. It really depends on what is in the fridge.
