Meal prep for weight loss is an effective strategy that helps you stay consistent with your calorie goals, avoid unhealthy food choices, and maintain portion control. By planning and preparing meals ahead of time, you can ensure that each dish is balanced with the right amounts of protein, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates to keep you satisfied while supporting gradual, sustainable weight loss. It also helps eliminate the guesswork and impulse decisions that often lead to overeating or ordering high-calorie takeout.


Some meals do more than fill your stomach, they absorb you into their atmosphere, place, and story. The Kilimanjaro Restaurant Jamia, nestled in Kenwood House on Kimathi Street, Nairobi, brings that kind of experience. It’s a restaurant that effortlessly merges East African authenticity with a refined ambiance, making every bite feel like both a comfort and a discovery.
