Plan ahead for your Nutrition!

If you're trying to get a handle of your calorie intake, you may get overwhelmed by trying to calculate the macros of a new meal everyday.  One method if you can do it is to eat similar food everyday.  I generally have the same breakfast and lunch everyday so I know how I'm doing on the calorie battle.

A nice way to save time to get this all together is to make all your food for a week or at least a few days at a time.  Through this summer I've been making some of my lunches in batches like this: I grill 4-5 breasts of chicken at a time and put it with brown rice that's cooking inside.  I take the results and stick then in 4-5 1 quart ziplock containers and pop them in the fridge.  A cyberspace buddy of mine has a nifty cool recipe that he does I've put it in below:


There's a lot of neat stuff you can do to make your meals interesting like my buddy does here.  The key is your preperation, therein lies your success.
