Anchor meals with protein
Dal, dahi, eggs, paneer, tofu, fish, or chicken at most meals makes the daily target less fragile.

Eat in a way you can repeat
NKFitness treats nutrition as a set of decisions: enough protein, an energy target that matches your goal, and food you can live with. Not a personality, not a 21-day detox.

Meal planning
A simple way to plan food
You do not need a gourmet meal-prep system. You need repeatable meals and a protein source you actually like.
Keep the food familiar
Roti, rice, sabzi, and home cooking can support fat loss or muscle gain. The pattern matters more than importing a new cuisine.
Adjust calories around your goal
Fat loss usually needs a modest deficit. Muscle gain usually needs a small surplus. Neither requires cutting out entire food groups.
