I always take my lunch. It is kind of just the way it is. I am never in the mood to get lunch together in the morning so I get it ready the night before and throw it in my lunch bag in the morning. As a teacher, I have to bring b/c we don't really have time to go out.


Me too! Where I work teachers only get 1/2 lunch time. I'd rather work on lesson plans, I.E.P's, or progress notes, etc. than run out for food. Not only do I save tons of $$$$ but I'm eating much healthierChat Icon.

I'm the opposite! I never eat before going to work - too early!! - but I pack enough food and snacks that you would think I was leaving for a 10-expedition. I always like to be prepared with food because I hate having to buy.



me too. People in my office used to daily ask whats in my feed bag!

My mornings are usually a time-crunch as it is, so I have to make my lunch the night before. But the last few months I was either tired, lazy, or both, so I opted to just buy lunches. Once I did the math on how much this cost me, ($120 a month!) I made the effort to go back to bringing lunches.

I am WAY too lazy to pack a lunch.... I have a freezer full of Lean Cusines and Smart Ones, and have one everyday for lunch



I do the exact same thing. I also buy a couple of boxes of Weight Watchers Muffins and keep those in my office for breakfast when I get in. I just have to remeber to bring stuff in on Monday morning.

I do this all the time. My problem is I can't decide what I will want for lunch in the morning. Everytime I bring something I never feel like eating it when luchtime rolls around.

I just decide I am having ______ for lunch, pack it up and call it a day. I have the same trouble deciding what to have when I buy lunch too. At least this way, I am saving money & usually eating better.

DH prepares my lunch box everyday. Otherwise I would not fix anything.



My DH prepares my lunch as well as breakfast each night so I just have to grab it & pack it. He also sets up my coffee pot to go on in the AM so all I have to do is fill my thermos in the morning after I have a cup.

Never, I'm always hungry. Or if I'm not, then I know I will be very soon.

I eat breakfast at home in the morning. Then at some point before lunch I have a snack, in fact right now I'm munching on Cheez-Its. Lately I've been lazy and I'll just grab a can of soup and a bowl for lunch to bring to work with me. I also bring in a roll but I try to make that last so I can bring it back home and have it with butter.

I don't think I've packed a lunch in a long time. Only because leftovers aren't appealing to me even though everytime I go down to the cafteria I say to myself thats it I'm bringing lunch from home. I usually end up going out though and on days where I eat at my desk the dept will buy lunch.

Thats why I make my lunch after I clean up from dinner. I could never get anything together in the morning. Not only am I half dead but I am so not hungry at all. Once lunch time comes, I am grateful I dont have to buy anything.



I do the exact same thing- I make lunch while dinner is getting ready. Lunch is always PB&J though, I'm lame.Chat Icon
