As well as helping you to lose weight, or maintain a healthy weight, meal planning is a great option for the following reasons: It helps save you money – if you know what you’re having in advance, you won’t be tempted to choose a takeaway as an easier option. Take a look at our budget meal plan. It reduces food waste – as you’ll only buy what you need for the week, you’ll be less likely to throw away food that’s gone past its use-by date. Meal planning saves time – you won’t need to make multiple trips to the supermarket, and you won’t need to think about what to have for dinner each day. You’ll be less stressed from being organised – meal planning is ideal for anyone, but can be especially helpful if you have a busy lifestyle.
