    I feel this so hard! Lately I’ve been better but not by much. I just do shelf-stable stuff like oatmeal and frozen stuff that I can either microwave or airfry.

    It’s not the healthiest, but it’s better than not eating and it’s cheaper than takeout every day…

      The quality of a lot of the fitness frozen meals is actually pretty good. If you keep a decent number of them on hand so you get variety.

      I find thats the best method. Keep the freezer full of healthy shit and go out if I want junk. Im lazy… but I’m also lazy.

        Some frozen meals can be gross, but I found a specific brand that does organic, vegetarian frozen meals and the quality is surprisingly good. And it’s still cheaper than takeout. Their frozen burritos are pretty good too, and even cheaper.

        In addition to that I keep various forms of frozen potatoes on hand, and some fish sticks and vegetarian chicken tenders (don’t judge me). It’s easy and adds variety.

        I probably haven’t been getting enough vegetables lately, so maybe I should start getting frozen peas and broccoli and stuff to microwave with that stuff.

        And then of course keeping a few frozen pizzas on hand, and I end up not really eating any one thing so frequently that I get bored of it.

        It’s not a glamorous life, but it’s peaceful and I don’t go hungry, and it makes monthly budgeting way easier
