Nail these 4 things and eating healthy becomes so much simpler!! 👇
✅ 30g protein
This is your anchor, you should build the meal around this first
Think things like chicken, salmon, eggs, Greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, tuna, steak, beef mince
✅ Fibre + colour
This is where you bring in your vegetables, as much variety as you can because different coloured plants feed different gut bacteria!
✅ Healthy fats
These keep you satisfied and support your hormones
Avocado, olive oil, nuts, full fat dairy, oily fish, eggs, ghee, coconut, and the fat found in animal proteins
✅ Carbs (this is where you fuel more intentionally based on your movement and goals)
For before and after strength training: go higher carb to fuel and recover
Things like rice, potatoes, sweet potato, fruit, sourdough, oats
For supporting fat loss and lower movement days: go high volume, lower glucose spike
Things like pumpkin, zucchini, cauliflower, roasted root veg, melon, berries
These keep you full without a big blood sugar spike, keeping your insulin more stable and preventing an energy crash (which triggers the snack attack 👀)
The easy thing is that you can run this exact checklist when you’re eating out too
Just look at the menu and ask: do I have protein, colour, fats and a smart carb choice?
This is the checklist I run through with every single meal!!
That’s it, simple and sustainable 🫡
Save this to come back to next time you’re feeling overwhelmed with nutrition!!
