What got me into meal prepping was actually just trying to save my budget.

I was working in corporate America and it was a nice job, but I wasn't making that much.

And I realized during my monthly budget that I was spending seventy five dollars a week just on lunch.

And that was something that I could not afford.

And so that really prompted me.

to start to look at batch cooking at meal prep.

At the time, I was out of shape and I got a lot of inspiration from the bodybuilding community.

I feel like bodybuilders in the fitness community were among the first ones to really perfect meal prep just because they have to have a certain amount of macros, they're always eating.

And so what those experiences taught me was it taught me a whole lot of discipline.

And had it not been for meal prep, then I wouldn't really be where I am today.

I know what portions are.

I know what foods pair well together.

I've told my followers that the most expensive meal that you'll ever make is the one that you toss out.

And before, I would prep for seven days and I would put that on Instagram, put that on YouTube, and it looked great on the grid.

But behind the scenes, by Thursday and Friday, I was pretty much trashing it just because I was so tired of it.

And so my meal prep journey... That's very honest of you.

Yeah.

And my meal prep journey progressed.

And what I've learned to do is just try to simplify it a lot more to first off, cut down the time in the kitchen before I would spend about two to three hours on a Sunday prepping.

Now I can spend about an hour and a half, an hour just prepping on a Sunday and then prepping again, like midweek.
