“Well done Cara! The barramundi is a great source of lean protein while the brown rice and carrots add a nice dose of fiber to your meal. Its great to see you consistently making such balanced meal choices. These meals are not only aiding your weight loss journey but also keeping you satiated. Just like your previous meals this one too seems to be well-rounded and in line with your nutrition goals.”
