Please pretty please keep doing these types of videos I honestly love them so much and they make my day abit brighter and watching you it motivated me to actually learn healthier habits after years of abusing my body with the bad foods but now I've found balance ❤😊

[@Ellena_fit]

Aw I will!! Well done you & thankss so much xx

[@meganoreo1839]

This is exactly what I've been looking for for so long. Quick, easy, delicious meals. You gave me inspiration to change my diet. Thank you 💗

[@Ellena_fit]

So good to hear 🙂🥰

[@chocimuncha]

I made the breakfast and the lunch, will prep the dinner tomorrow. In the UK - swapped name brands for own brands and it came to about £20 (I already had pasta at home) and swapped the uncle bens for brown rice.

[@Ellena_fit]

love this so much!!! :D

[@caramullaney2043]

Hi going to try these meals this week. Can you please do more of these full meal preps for 3-4 days, as I find them so useful. ❤

[@Ellena_fit]

Yes of course 🥰

[@bethaminkhan4951]

PLEASE do more of these meal prep videos with all the ingredients and recipes... Knowing what to eat is such a problem and now I will make all of these...

[@Ellena_fit]

Aww thankyou! I will

[@sheilajh2043]

Wait 300gr of chicken breast for 4 days????

[@jessclement7117]

Thanks so much for making these videos! You really inspire me to track better and eat better. All the food looks amazing 🙌🏼 trying to do some prep tonight!

Yay so glad!!

Another Sunday night spent with Ellie, so much inspiration and guidance x

[@Blastoise1414]

How long do you microwave the creamy pasta dish after getting out the freezer ? Also when you say 60g of pasta is that per dish or 60g gets divided per the 4 containers ? Sorry new to food prepping:)

[@louietoltolvlog9699]

Great video. Just wonder where you’re from. Sounded like Europe accent.

[@Ellena_fit]

London!

[@TheSilverwing999]

Oh I was confused for a second from the recipe. So it's not actual coconut milk, it's coconut drink like alpro. Thought that would be way too thick. I wouldn't recommend cutting up the strawberries 4 days in advance. They are gonna get so bad. Just cut it up on the day

[@Ellena_fit]

I cut up the strawbs and they are fine but yes up to you :)

[@daniellavelissariou9306]

Love this! All look so good! Because I’m vegetarian , I would probably use black beans for the lunch and maybe chickpeas or tofu for the dinner instead of chicken.. how many grams would I use? Would it be the same ?

[@Ellena_fit]

Yeah that’s absolutely fine! I would use around the same yes. Always aim for 20-30g protein per meal ideally 🫶🏼

[@sophiemoxon4485]

Do you get bored by day 4? That’s my concern doing something like this. I usually don’t plan more than 2 days at a time but I’m ALWAYS cooking 😅xx

[@Ellena_fit]

noo not at all as i change the snacks!!

[@shenelledias]

Ellie all your food looks amazing! The pasta looked so good 😌❤️🤌🏼 thank uu for sharing all these high protein meal ideas!

[@Ellena_fit]

Aw thank you!!! Really appreciate it xx

[@imanluther1589]

Wow thank you❤. I recently fell off the wagon with my eating. Just frustrated and overwhelmed by complicated recipes. I think I can actually do this for the next 4 days I’m running to the market now with confidence. But what is the American equivalent for the cheese you use for lunch ? Like feta or something ?

[@Ellena_fit]

ahh you have got this!!! ohhh!! do you not have halloumi in the US?

[@sls4170]

Can someone please share with me how to measure how many calories and protein? Is this done with a food scale?

[@Ellena_fit]

Yes so weigh the food then use an app like myfitnesspal to calculate the total macros & cals, but most food items have them on the packaging xx

Can this be done without the chia seeds. I’ve never tried them and was about to purchase them until I heard peoples stories! So will it still be beneficial with them out them in the overnight oats or are they a must have?

[@becky752]

during your cut as you’ve kept high calories (2400) are you burning more than them calories each day to be in a deficit ? or are you on more of a maintence

[@Ellena_fit]

So as I was on a bulk, I didn’t want to dramatically cut calories as it would ruin my progress and also be very difficult. So I dropped them slowly and my body has been responding really well as it’s been used to eating higher calories over the past few months.

[@Ellena_fit]

In terms of a deficit / maintenance, I’m in a small deficit yes! 😊 my metabolism has increased hugely from bulking

[@joyceursinus1258]

Can't find the halloumi light in the Netherlands ...suggestions for substitute?

Hmm could just use normal halloumi? Xx

I just made all of this and I am exhausted 😂 I used chocolate protein instead of vanilla while I waited for my vanilla protein to turn up and I used brown flaxseed instead of chia seeds while I wait for them to turn up also so hopefully my breakfast still tastes good. Thanks for sharing x
