Keep the cravings at bay and stay on track with your meal prep with this 4 week nutrition plan featuring
4 WEEK delicious and nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinner recipes designed by expert dieticians. A step-by-step
guide and a detailed snack list is also included to boost your kitchen confidence.
All meals are quick and simple to prepare, without sacrificing quality of ingredients
or flavour, and are adaptable to specific dietary needs.
Our recipes are focused on decreasing carb intake, in favour of increased protein/fat. This allows for fat
loss whilst maintaining lean muscle mass. All recipes have been checked to ensure they are balanced
in terms of both macro and micronutrient levels, to ensure sustained health whilst allowing for body
recomposition.
• For women looking to lose weight and focusing on body composition, we recommend an approximate
calorie intake of 1400 per day.
Snacks: Healthy snacks that are filling and nutritious are part of your overall daily calorie intake. Choose
between simple snack ideas and some pre-prepared snacks or treats.
Serving sizes: Breakfasts and lunches are usually single serves. Dinner always serves 2 or more.
Special dietary needs: Check the recipe labels for gluten-free and dairy-free alternatives.
Vegetarians : Substitute 100g of meat or seafood for 35g yellow cheese, 50g white cheese, 140g
chickpeas, lentils or beans or 20g nuts.
The information in the 4 Week Nutrition Plan is not intended to replace medical advice. We
recommend that if you are undertaking a new exercise program or nutritional plan, or if you have
