The first time I asked ChatGPT for a meal plan, it gave me something generic.The second version was too aspirational.But the third prompt? That one stuck.

In this episode, I break down how I used AI to build a realistic, high-protein meal system that fits my macros, my time constraints, and my real life — not some hypothetical fitness fantasy.

This isn’t about hacks. It’s about iteration.Most people stop after one prompt. But the real leverage is what happens when you refine.

🧠 What You’ll Learn:

* Why your first AI prompt rarely gives you what you need

* How I used ChatGPT to plan meals that fit my exact macro targets

* The shift from “tell me what to eat” to “help me solve for real-world constraints”

* How AI lowered my decision fatigue around food

* What changed after the third prompt

🧾 Mentioned in the Episode:

* My current macro targets (calories, protein, carbs, fat)

* Real prompts used to build daily meals

* How to handle restaurants and the unexpected

* Identify trends and issues with your plan
