By planning your meals ahead of time you can be more intentional in ensuring you are eating a fully balanced and nutritious meal.
1
First know your schedule for the week. Which meals will you be eating out with friends, coworkers, family? Which will you be eating at home?

Choose a day of the week that works for you to spend some time in the kitchen. By preparing your meals ahead of time, you can dedicate a couple of hours and save yourself guesswork throughout the week.
3
If you prepare fresh fruits and vegetables as a snack, you are less likely to go for the processed, sugar snacks.
4
Keep your meals simple. When meals seem daunting to make and cause more stress than ease, it defeats the purpose.
