    All of the above 💪🏼

    I’m a Leo, and it’s very easy for me to stay consistent regardless of what it is. I don’t quite think it has to do with your zodiac sign. You are greater than simply “ a virgo”.
    Anyways, maybe it’s easier for me to eat the same meals every day because of working in construction my whole life, usually working 5-6 days a week 10 hours a day. Where I’m at a point of not having to over think “what am I taking for food today?!?”
    Eating the same meals everyday, allows me to stay on point with my calories and macro ratios. And yes, of course there are days where I may eat a meal or two slightly different to what’s planned; however, at the end of the day, food for me is simply energy for my body to accomplish my greater purpose .
    Anyways, thanks for all the responses everybody! Keep ‘em coming!
    Ps, I deal with grown *kitten* men and women who give each other a hard time every day so don’t be afraid to say what’s really on your mind 😉

    " You are greater than simply “ a virgo”."- completely agree!
    "don’t be afraid to say what’s really on your mind"- that's what I did, just poked fun on all of us :)

    One size does not fit all.

    I'm team whatever doesn't seem like torture.

    For some, it's a lot of variety. For some, it's no variety whatsoever. For some it's a mixture! :)

    For some, it's "eating clean". For some, it's twinkies and ding dongs. For some, it's a mixture! :)

    For some, it's high/low fat/protein/carbs/sugar/alcohol (take your pick or mix it up! :))

    None of the above.

    Shopping properly (shopping for my eating plan) is the best way for me to stay on point. Having a plan when I get to the store, and having those foods in my house.

    I'm trying a meal planning desktop app to see if it makes it easier to try other/new things and add more variety without all the stress of trying to create shopping lists - first impressions it may be the missing link I was needing.

    I can't stand eating the same thing every day, and I also do not do well feeling hungry...trial and error has taught me that I do best on a lower carb diet (not keto or no carb, but avoiding carb based foods - rice, potatoes, baked anything, sugary foods - pretty much does the job). I feel satiated and full after a meal and I lose weight relatively easily.

    Issue is it is not a "cheap" way to eat, so if money is a major concern, I can't afford to eat that way very well. The last time I stuck to one the lack of variety got to me after a while when I started to get tired of the same types of meals with slightly different flavors - but the app may be changing that, even this first week alone I've tried some new recipes that fit the bill as far as macros but are delicious changes from my usual!
