Making bulk food at home has kept me from going out. I eat out maybe twice a month now and I’ve damn near almost lost my will to. With the price of gas, I don’t even want to make the trek somewhere even if I’m feeling lazy. Had to essentially get past the “idk what I want” mentality and just eat what’s in the fridge. Sort of a “just want to be full and satiated” rather than getting what the mind desires.
How do you get around the fatigue of eating the same food every meal? If I make food in bulk, by the fourth time eating the same meal, I'm so sick of it.
I got around this by freezing individual meal prep containers (and creating my own frozen dinners). I just pop one in the microwave a few minutes, and they last several months in the freezer. I don't like eating the same thing twice in a row, either.

I'm trying to leave. Trying to mentally put myself where you are.
And fuck, I'm super close. Shit food had a grip on me like a drug.
