Meal Prep, The Right Way

The trainer that I've been working with recommended a chef for meal prep by the name of @thechefgabenoel. I decided to pick up an order of 7 meals from him on Sunday to see if it was worth it. I'm 2 meals in and I'll say that this has been the best $90 I've spent on food in a really long time. Though I sometimes enjoy cooking, I despise actual meal prepping. It's expensive and time consuming. Ordering from Chef Gabe has truly been a blessing and what I'd call "the life". The man can truly cook and if he truly doesn't use salt as he stated, then I don't miss it. So what comes with 7 meals? You get dishes with one veggie (assorted veggies or green beans), one carb (yams or brown rice) and one protein (salmon, lamb, shrimp or chicken). I noticed that the proteins are all seasoned to perfection while the others aren't hence why I probably don't miss the salt very much. With this new chef around, my goal is to order from him biweekly and continue my personal meal preps every other week.Til God blesses me with a man in my life who can cook or the ability to afford a permanent chef, I'm totally fine with having this chef step in twice a month.

Everyone looks at me and says, what are you working so hard for? As I've mentioned I gained 34 lbs in 5 years and have struggled with a gut my entire life. My goal is to lose about half of that and fall somewhere near where I was in the below photos from 2014. This version of me... I'm coming for and claiming to be a little better!

As stated in a blog a few years ago, my goal is somewhere between Angela Bassett, Elen and Lana Ector or just a better version of myself.  These powerful women, their physiques and persistence at greatness give me all kinds of life!

Shape up or shut up!

Peace and blessings!
