REVIEW

Using a meal prep plan as a basis for healthy weight loss and healthy eating. The meal preps include shopping lists as well as step-by-step cooking lists. Portioning, storing, and reheating instructions are included. It offers a range of 3, 4, 5, and 6 Recipe Meal Preps. It also includes chapters of recipes so that if you want to do the 1 Carb, 1 Protein, 1 Veggie meal prep you can pick what to make. I found a lot of tasty recipes that I have incorporated into my meals. Each recipe includes a storage tip, an ingredient tip, what to add if more calories are needed. I found spending a day prepping for the week is a time-saver for the weeknights ahead. It’s so simple to just pull out what is already prepared and heat.  Nice layout, easy to follow, and full of information.

Biography

Hi! My name is Kelli Shallal, MPH RD, I’m a Registered Dietitian and personal trainer based in Phoenix, Arizona. I received my Master’s of Public Health from Loma Linda University in 2013 and became an RD shortly after that. Before I became a dietitian, I had NO IDEA how to cook or what healthy food was. In fact, I’d never seen green beans that weren’t served in a can until I was 23! (Oh, and did I mention those canned green beans were served boiled with butter and sugar? Thanks to my very southern Grandma for that!)

My mission is to help you achieve a balance between healthy and happy. A healthy lifestyle should include healthy food, fitness, stress management, sleep, treats, participation in social gatherings, and happiness. Balance is a subjective word, but I want to help you find a place where you are enjoying your life but also taking care of your health.

At this point in my career through private practice, my blog, my books, and meal planning service, I’ve helped thousands of people lose weight, improve their GI health, balance their hormones, and get organized in the kitchen. I can’t wait to help you on your healthy living journey too!
