Prep tips for day 6
- ✓Whisk the eggs and chop the vegetables tonight — the cooking itself takes only a few minutes in the morning.
- ✓Shrimp thaws quickly and cooks in minutes — move a bag to the refrigerator the night before and dinner comes together fast.
- ✓Wash and portion the fruit when you put the groceries away so snacks need zero assembly.
This plan is set at about 1,700 calories a day with roughly 35 grams of protein or more at each main meal. To eat less, drop the second snack and cut starch portions by one-third, keeping the protein foods intact. To eat more, add 1/2 cup of a whole grain or one extra ounce of protein at lunch and dinner.
