@verdasco I’m with you on that. For diets my body is pretty particular, and only seems to respond to very low carb diets. My usual simple meal prep is also pretty cheap

- mixed veggies from Costco, frozen
- big pack of ‘stew beef’ from Costco. They’re just the tip ends from the butchering, keep an eye and you can get packs of almost entirely top sirloin etc. Cut smaller at home and freeze
- rotisserie chicken, shred and debone
- canned tuna, almost straight as is. Can be delicious
- weekend treat a frozen salmon steak. Cooked right is amazing.
- eggs with sautéed spinach for breakfast

Right now I’m not trying to drop pounds like a madman so I’m not super strict. Mostly quinoa salad with chicken (think greek salad, remove the feta and add quinoa), some yogurt, cut obvious carbs like bread and pasta, no pops or junk food. Down about 6 quality pounds in 3 weeks. Getting married and enjoying the first year saw me get up to about 215. Once down to about 200, I can start going a lot harder
