Meal Prep Guide for Weight Loss

Step 1: Pick a day to meal prep

Most people pick Sunday or Monday.
Set aside 2–3 hours to cook and pack everything.
Step 2: Choose 2–3 proteins for the week
Example:

Bake 4–5 chicken breasts at once (season with herbs, lemon, and olive oil).
Grill 3–4 salmon fillets or cook tofu.
Boil 6–8 eggs (for quick breakfasts/snacks).
Step 3: Prep your carbs
Example:

Cook a big pot of brown rice and/or quinoa.
Roast a tray of sweet potatoes.
Step 4: Wash and cut your vegetables
Example:

Chop cucumbers, peppers, carrots, and broccoli.
Store them in airtight containers for easy grab-and-go salads or stir-fries.
Step 5: Portion your meals

Use meal prep containers.
Each container = 1 protein + 1 carb + lots of veggies.
Example: Grilled chicken + quinoa + broccoli.
Step 6: Prepare snacks

Portion nuts into small bags.
Pre-pack Greek yogurt cups with a few berries on top.
Cut fruits and store in separate containers (like apple slices, berries).
Step 7: Plan your fridge/freezer

Keep 3 days' worth of meals in the fridge.
Freeze extra meals and take them out the night before you need them.
Bonus Tip:

Keep it simple! You don’t need 10 different meals.
2–3 meal options rotated through the week is perfect — saves time and stops food waste.

STAYING HEALTHY & LOSING WEIGHT – TIPS THAT WORK!

1. Drink More Water
Start your day with a glass of water – it helps your body wake up and supports digestion.

2. Eat Colourful Meals
The more colour on your plate (from fruits and veggies), the more nutrients you’re getting!

3. Move Your Body Daily
You don’t have to hit the gym – a 30-minute walk, dancing, or stretching works wonders!

4. Watch Your Portions
Use a smaller plate, chew slowly, and stop when you’re satisfied, not stuffed.

5. Cut Back on Sugar
Swap fizzy drinks for infused water or herbal tea. Small changes = big results!

6. Sleep is Key
Aim for 7–8 hours of good sleep. It helps your body burn fat and reduces cravings.

7. Eat African, Eat Healthy
Try steamed plantain, veggie soups, grilled meats, and natural spices. Home food can be weight-loss friendly!

8. Don’t Skip Meals
Skipping meals slows your metabolism. Eat balanced portions 2–3 times a day with healthy snacks if needed.

9. Track Your Progress
Use a journal or app to stay motivated and celebrate every little win!

10. Be Kind to Yourself
Weight loss is a journey, not a race. Stay positive and consistent.

A lifestyle with good nutrition, regular physical activity, and stress management supports a healthy weight. People who lose weight at a gradual, steady pace—about 1 to 2 pounds a week—are more likely to keep the weight off than people who lose weight quickly.

Type 2 diabetes

Type 2 diabetes causes the level of sugar in the blood to become too high.

It can lead to serious complications such as sight loss, kidney failure, heart attack and stroke. You can reduce your risk by eating more healthily, losing weight and being more physically active.

You may be at a higher risk if you:

carry extra weight, especially around your middle
are from South Asian, African-Caribbean or Black African descent
have a parent, brother, sister or child with type 2 diabetes
To find out if you’re at risk of type 2 diabetes, take a couple of minutes to check your risk score.

If you have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes - get free NHS support online to help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight.

Everyone

We also believe that adopting a healthy lifestyle is a holistic effort, which is why we focus on four core pillars of wellness:

NUTRITION
Eating well means eating with balance. In addition to making sure we get enough fruits and vegetables in our diets, portion control and regular mealtimes are also key nutritional habits.
FITNESS
A healthy lifestyle is an active one. Whether it’s just adding a few minutes to playtime each day, or pushing yourself toward new fitness goals, finding ways to get your family moving is necessary to keep everyone healthy.
HYDRATION
Drinking enough water is a key component of a healthy lifestyle. Replacing sugary drinks with water, eating high water content fruits and vegetables, and replenishing fluids after exercise are all key steps to living and feeling your best.
SLEEP
Sleep and stress management are often overlooked in the health picture. Setting healthy bedtime habits for the whole family and finding ways to cope with day-to-day stress are vital not just for mental health, but for physical health as well.
