This week however sickness has ruled out house and we have been living off MIL's soup and DH running to the store for random things. We need to make a list, but honestly the thought of that much food makes me sick to think about. This week could be rough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060193 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 07:02:45 +0000 MrsKRB 2060193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I plan all my dinners save for maybe a day or two and typically eat leftovers for lunch. I usually have the same thing for breakfast everyday. Meal planning is good! It leaves less room for error, I know on the weeks when I wing it I typically buy too much food and end up going out to eat anyway :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060188 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 06:55:24 +0000 blackbird 2060188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a super meal planner. And i am a big proponent of it while losing weight and/or trying to save myself time during the week. it is incredibly effective for me and the surefire way I can meet all my macronutrient requirements for the day. After awhile, it totally becomes second nature. I know what I'm having for lunch, even now, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, because I make an egg bake for the week, I take leftovers for lunch, and my dinners are totally planned out. And the night before, I plan out my snacks. I have to pack them therefore I have to know what I'm bringing, right? :) I really hate to be caught at work, hungry, without food. So i plan accordingly and bring what I know I'm going to need! My eating is pretty predictable at this point: bfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner. </p> <p>Anyways. Not crazy. You'll find that the most successful people (as far as losing weight go) do this, and find it's critical to success. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060095 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:20:50 +0000 sarac 2060095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it works, then great! I eat the same breakfast every. single. day of my life, and I love it, honestly. Some people just thrive on routine and on plans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060085 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:10:22 +0000 lawbee11 2060085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do but I'm also a creature of habit and eat pretty much the exact same thing every weekday for breakfast and lunch! So that makes it pretty easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060083 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:09:26 +0000 rachiecakes 2060083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all.<br /> We're vegetarians and I don't buy junk. But I don't plan meals. My husband works late, so it's just me &amp; DS for dinner. I could probably eat more, but dinner is healthy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060074 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:00:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2060074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a years worth of meal plans. It includes a grocery list and prep list. It's super convenient! I don't plan out my breakfast in much detail and usually eat leftovers or a salad for lunch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-planned-are-your-meals#post-2060071 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 22:55:15 +0000 travellingbee 2060071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been meal planning dinners for a while but since I've started trying to eat healthier and lose weight, I've found I plan every single meal for mself (down to snacks!) on Sunday, and make minor adjustments throughout the week. So far, I really like it but I've never been so organized!!<br /> Anyone else do this? Or am I crazy? :silly: any good tips? </p>
