BUILDING YOUR MEALS

You may be feeling overwhelmed, confused and questioning how to hit those numbers.

Take a deep breath. Today we're going to give you all the tools to set you up for success throughout this program. 

Adjusting your day

  • If you haven’t already, set your custom goals in MacrosFirst.

  • Tap Profile

  • Tap "My Goals"

  • Tap into your goal to access the "Edit Goal" screen

PROFILE > MY GOALS > EDIT GOAL

  • Practice logging a few normal days worth of food. How far are you from your macro goals? What can you adjust to get close to your numbers?

Are you way over on fat? Maybe you can choose a salad dressing with less oil, or leaner cuts of a meat. Way under on protein? Maybe you can incorporate a midday yogurt snack, pack some double protein on your sandwich or start having an egg white breakfast? Way over on carbs? Try switching to higher volume carbs like leafy greens instead of dense carbs like rice, bread or potatoes. Play around with it. 

The closer you can get to your goals without greatly disrupting your eating, the better.

Managing your kitchen time

It can be as simple or as complicated as you make it. In order to succeed, you need to set aside a time to purchase + prepare food for yourself. Open up the weekly calendar, block off a few hours.

When planning your shop + prep follow these 3 steps.

  1. Build a menu (have an idea of the recipes you want to make, or snacks you’ll want to have on hand.)

  2. Build a grocery list (go down your menu, and build the list)

  3. Shop (to save time and money, don’t be afraid to shop in build and freeze!)

  4. Need more help? (Check out our partnership with FHM below + join the app today!)
