3 Meals to Help with Weightloss
Consistency and dedication are two things that will help you when it comes to fat loss/weight loss. It's important to find a fitness and nutrition routine that you can maintain for longer than a few weeks. Learning how to eat healthily isn't easy but I can assure you it's worth it because once you see results it becomes addicting.
Cauliflower-crusted pizza, alfredo spaghetti squash and chickpea chocolate brownies are all great food hacks to enjoy in moderation but when looking for long-lasting results you'll want to keep it basic. Turning foods you LOVE into “healthier” versions should still be kept in the 20% moderation zone. I always suggest keeping nutrition simple while you educate yourself on what your body needs.
"Do I need to eat the same thing every day?"
No, but being consistent with eating whole foods 80% of the time and allowing for 20% moderation (those recipe hacks you are dying to try) is a good idea when looking for results. Keep your meals consistent with a variety of protein, healthy fats, healthy complex carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables and limit sugars and processed snacks/foods.
