Let's face the truth. It is incredibly difficult to lose weight with so much temptation around us! When eating out, the food is always oily, high in calorie and incredibly expensive. Make sure you have a balanced and healthy diet by prepping your own food and bringing it to work or school.

Here is one week worth of meal prep ideas that is both low-calorie and easy to make!

Day #1

49935378-9cfc-3777-a229-0243d4f5b65c

Start the week light without carbs and eat more vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, and corns for dietary fibre and vitamins. Steam some prawns as prawns are relatively low in calories as compared to meats but provides the same amount of protein. End off your meal with a sweet peach!

Day #2

Prep some grilled chicken breast (check out our recipes!) and stir-fry some scallops with vegetables you have in the fridge. Steam some sweet potatoes for low-calorie carbs and end off your meal with a juicy fruit like peach or pear.
