Creating the “skeleton” of your meals:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Think of a fat source, a carb source and a protein source to create a balanced meal to help you reach your daily macros!

I’ll do this with my 3 main meals (you can obv have as many as you want to reach your macros!) and then see how many macros I have leftover.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
From there I add in snacks and spruce up my meals a bit by adding in condiments or toppings as I see fit.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Once you start tracking macros and you realize NO food is “off limits”, it opens up your choices & you never have to feel bored while losing weight!
