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.
