The zero-cost, fat-loss method

I was asked, “What is the most important thing for fat loss?” The answer is: meal prep. If you’re hungry, you’re going to grab what’s quick: takeout, chips, a protein bar, cookies, and/or a frozen meal (typically mac & cheese, or pizza). I tend to gravitate towards tortilla chips, and too many nuts.

Those items are high-calorie, high-fat, and lack nutrients, so you’ll probably eat more than you burn. Your body needs nutrients, not just calories, which is why you want to chose the most nutrient-dense foods which will fill you up.
