Meal prep has made cutting much easier for me because I’m less likely to make random food choices when I’m hungry I usually prep a few simple protein sources carbs nd vegetables rather than making complicated meals. Having portions ready also makes tracking calories much less stressful. For me the biggest win is simply having food ready when hunger hits.

I prep ingredients instead of full meals. Gives me more variety during the week.

Dude like I don’t prep seven identical meals three or four days at a time feels more realistic.

Spices and different sauces made a huge difference for me. Same basic foods less boredom man really eating same bland food was not working for me
