A meal plan is a structured guide that outlines what you will eat and drink over a specific period of time — usually a day, week, or month — to meet certain health, nutrition, or lifestyle goals.

​

In simple terms:

It’s a planned schedule of meals and snacks designed to:

• Ensure balanced nutrition

• Control portion sizes

• Support goals (weight loss, muscle gain, managing diabetes, etc.)

• Save time and reduce food waste

​

Example (1 day meal plan):

• Breakfast: Oats with milk and banana

• Snack: Apple + handful of nuts

• Lunch: Grilled chicken, brown rice, mixed vegetables

• Snack: Yogurt

• Dinner: Baked fish, sweet potato, salad
