1. Add your favourite meals and snacks

The easiest way to stick to a meal plan is to fill it with the things you already eat. It makes it feel more familiar and natural. Feeling like you’re being forced to eat wild Atlantic Salmon when you don’t really like fish is going make sticking to your plan an uphill battle. By adding the meals and snacks you already like to Plan Our Meals, your customized meal plans will feel like you made them yourself.

2. Create recurring meals

We all have foods we eat daily. For me it’s a cappuccino or two. If you know you’re going to be eating something whether your meal plan tells you to or not then you might as well let your meal plan know that. By telling Plan Our Meals what you’re definitely going to eat, it can make adjustments to your other meals and snacks so you can still hit your goals.

3. Sort your ingredients by aisle

Shopping can take a long time. It’s even worse if you’re running back and forth between aisles at a busy shop because you missed something from an aisle when you skimmed through your unorganized list. Telling Plan Our Meals what aisle the pasta is in at your local shop allows Plan Our Meals to create a shopping list perfectly tailored to your needs. This saves you time and makes shopping for your food a more enjoyable experience.

4. Set your goals

The biggest benefit of planning your meals is the ability to your meal plan exactly what you want it to be. It can make losing weight effortless and hitting your macros a simple tap of a button. By setting specific calorie goals you lose weight in a safe and healthy way without thinking about it. Add in some macro goals and you can make sure you’re firing on all cylinders so you can perform at your best throughout the day.
