Of course idk about the origins of the trend necessarily so this is just personal opinion but meal prepping really feels like one of those things that could hugely benefit people w depression/executive function issues but gets dogged on a lot because u typically only see health nut grindset influencer types singing its praises. Similar to bullet journaling. Like I know that if I could cook my weekly meals for 1/3 meals of the day all at once so I don’t have to worry about gathering the motivation to cook in the next few days that would be crazy helpful. Maybe that’s just me though.

#op #ofc I don’t/can’t do it purely due to lack of fridge space lol but when I move out… unless that magically fixes some of my issues #automatically… it’s something I consider doing #otherwise/in my current state I just flounder or snack and/or have something that isn’t healthy #idg the ‘I don’t wanna eat the same thing for five days’ gripes (and of course that’s a personal choice so you do you but meal prepping is #also… a personal choice so let those people do them) because if u do stuff like pasta or rice w veggies there’s many ways you can #switch it up day to day #I’ve seen people do tofu w five different marinades for every day which is another good example #once again just my opinion :) obviously it isn’t [necessary] for everybody #the closest I’ve gotten to meal prepping is making a big soup and keeping it in the fridge for like 2 weeks
