Weight loss meal prep
Chef-Made Weight Loss Meal Prep in Inglewood
Weight loss meal prep is mostly a calorie question: portioned, calorie-counted meals make a deficit easy to hold without weighing food yourself. Every dish on Prepared publishes its calories and macros, and chefs will size portions to a target you give them. Chefs price per dish, and most meals land around $12 to $20 each.

What to know about weight loss meal prep
- Calories and full macros are printed on every dish, so a daily deficit is checkable rather than estimated.
- Meals arrive individually portioned, which removes the serving-size decision at the point you're hungriest.
- Tell a chef your calorie target and they'll size portions to it before the weekly cutoff.
- Rotating weekly menus from local chefs, so the plan doesn't fail from boredom.
- Prepared publishes numbers; targets and any medical weight management stay with your doctor or dietitian.
Weight loss meal prep is mostly a portioning problem. Deciding what to eat when you're hungry and tired is where most weeks come apart, and pre-portioned, calorie-counted containers remove that decision without asking you to weigh anything at home.
A week from a Prepared chef is individually packed meals with the calorie count and full macros printed on each one. Chefs building for this tend to lean on lean protein and vegetables for volume, so a container at a modest calorie count still eats like dinner rather than a snack. Everything is cooked fresh weekly by an independent chef nearby, and menus rotate, which matters, because boredom ends more attempts than hunger does.
Prepared is food with published numbers, not medical or dietetic advice. We don't set a calorie target for you and won't pretend to know one. Bring a number from your doctor or dietitian, or one you've settled on yourself, tell the chef, and they'll portion to it; the published counts let you verify the week adds up.
Weight Loss meal prep in Inglewood: common questions
How many calories should my meals be?
It depends on your body and activity, so we don't guess for you. Tell a chef your target and they'll portion to it. The published calorie count on each dish lets you check the maths.
Is this a diet plan?
No. Prepared is chef-cooked food with the numbers on the label. For medical or clinical weight management, talk to a doctor or dietitian.
How many meals a week should I order?
Most people start by replacing lunches and dinners on weekdays, around ten containers. The meals you cook yourself are usually the ones that drift, so start with those.
Can chefs handle allergies?
Sometimes, and it's a per-chef answer rather than a platform one. Chefs cook in independent home and commercial kitchens, not certified allergen-controlled facilities, so shared equipment and cross-contact are real possibilities and we won't tell you a dish is safe for a serious allergy or coeliac disease. Put the allergy, intolerance or ingredient you avoid in the request form above and a person will confirm with the chef what they can and can't commit to before you order.
How much does it cost?
Each chef sets their own prices and publishes them per dish, so you can see what a week costs before you commit to anything. Most single-serving meals land somewhere around $12 to $20 depending on the chef, the protein and the portion size, and there's no membership or subscription fee on top. You pay for the meals you order.
How does ordering actually work?
You pick a chef, choose meals from the menu they publish for that week, and order before their cutoff. They cook a day or two before delivery and bring it to you chilled, not frozen. Ordering and payment happen on the chef's own page on eatprepared.com. This site is where you find the right chef and tell us what you need.
When do meals arrive, and are they frozen?
Each chef cooks and delivers on their own weekly schedule. Most deliver Sundays, some Mondays, and each chef's day is listed on their card above. Meals arrive chilled and freshly cooked, ready to reheat, rather than frozen in bulk and shipped from a warehouse.
What if no chef has published the menu I want?
Ask anyway. Chefs cook every week to order, so a diet nobody has put on a menu is still one you can request. Tell us what you need in the form above and we confirm directly with a chef what they can cook before you commit to anything. That request is also how a diet ends up on menus here in the first place.
Is there a subscription or minimum?
There's no membership or subscription fee. You pay for the meals you order. Individual chefs may set their own order minimums, which you'll see on their page before you check out.
Can I change or cancel an order?
Up to that chef's weekly cutoff, yes. Message them through Prepared and they'll adjust it. After the cutoff they've usually already shopped and started prepping, so changes get harder.
