Wraps. I throw them together quickly, smear laughing cow wedge on an ole 1 pt wrap add spinach and chicken slices. 2 pt Protien shakes. Fruit cups in juice. Pre cut fruit and veggies. Low point micro meals. Sugar free jello with sugar free whipped cream.  

Answer 6

I have an Instant Pot and an air fryer. I do a lot of cooking but find I use the air fryer more. For someone who doesn't cook I think the Instant Pot requires more of a learning curve. Air fryer is my go to for chicken breasts etc. So moist and tender.

I feel like no one owns a grill, we grill meat and veggies for dinner and bring the leftovers for lunch. Cooking, grilling, IP . you only get better with practice. Don’t just say you can’t cook, do your best and you will get better

I love meal planning and trying new recipes. I like grocery shopping. I love food shows cookbooks and Pinerest. Just don't love cooking as much! Lol! I like quick and easy meals. More assembling ingredients and less actual cooking. @ashleytrackspoints on Instagram has some great ideas. I just bought an air fryer ($30 at Best Buy and it works great! ). I love it and think I will be using it a lot.

@footway been doing this for 40 years, it works. Lie on bed do lower body/core work while watching tv. Leg lifts/various versions, sit ups, etc. Have someone show you safe and effective ways to work out. Time will fly, do it daily. No excuses not to move.  

Answer 28

I bought a microwave steamer! made meal prep and everything so much easier!  

Comments

@ready Sherlock might try

---

I was able to make meals in minutes. I only use chicken, haven't tried other meats, but I've made Omlettes in it which is quick and easy, but I also meal prep and it took me less then 30 minutes for about 2 weeks of lunches. Meal 1: Chicken with black beans, peppers, onions, and fajita seasoning (sometimes I will eat this with cauli rice or on a couple "street taco" tortillas , Meal 2: Chicken with stirfry vegetables and a toasted sesame dressing (sometimes I'll eat this with cauli rice or a couple potstickers) Meal 3: Chicken with sweet potatoes and green beans with bbq sauce, Meal 4: Chicken with yellow squash, peppers, onions and fresh marinara sauce an a little fresh parmesan. For each meal I used frozen chicken tenderlions, and fresh or frozen veggies, and put them all in a ziplock freezer bag. When I want to eat I just pour the contents of the bag into my microwave steamer and pop it in the microwave for 8 minutes.

@ready Sherlock what a great idea.

@energid Hefler Fisher I've got hashimotos and that comes with bad fatigue with spurts of energy so I try to use the energy for meal prepping to try to stay on track.

I’m not a cook either. The crock pot is my friend though I’m looking into an instapot. I roast veggies and chicken. It is easy to prepare and tasty. We have tacos once a week. I have my taco as a salad. We usually have Rotisserie chicken once a week with a salad and now I get green beans for myself and Mac and cheese for the family.
