What is the benefit of eating low-carb?
The key benefit of a low-carb diet is how your body creates energy. Your body begins to burn fat more efficiently instead of glucose. Healthy fats allow you to feel satiated for a longer period of time.
The combination of these two factors means you eat less and create energy as a fat burner as opposed to a sugar burner.

Making Meal Prepping Easy
Meal prepping occurs after your meal planning. This is the part where we actually have to put in some effort. But here are a few simple tips to simplify the process.
- Figure out how many servings you'll need for each meal for the week. (For example, 4 people x 4 dinners = 16 servings) You can reserve a day to take care of those leftovers.
- Pick a main protein like chicken, beef, or pork. You can use your main protein in a number of recipes to create enough variety where it doesn't feel like you're eating the same thing over and over.
- Prep ready to cook meals and freeze them. You'll slowly build up a stock to work through busy weekdays.
- Use airtight food containers to pack portioned lunches for the week.
