Simple 1,200-Calorie Meal Plan

Dive in and start hitting your weight loss goals today with help from this simple 30-day meal plan featuring easy-to-make recipes and helpful meal prep tips. Each day comes in around 1,200 calories—a calorie level at which many people can safely lose 1 to 2 pounds per week—and includes enough protein and fiber to help you feel full and satisfied while cutting calories.

This plan is optimized to save you time and energy by reusing ingredients and leftovers in creative ways throughout the month. Weekly meal prep steps show how a little legwork at the beginning of the week means less work during the busy weekdays.

We call for healthy convenience items whenever possible, but scan the plan and see what else you can get from the store premade (like cooked brown rice, frozen riced cauliflower and spiralized zucchini noodles). By keeping this plan simple yet exciting and delicious, you'll be motivated to stick with it till the end.
