    I get meals on wheels. I just sit in a wheelchair and put on a white wig when they come.
    Sleep well, and dream of large women.

      If you have a well stocked kitchen making a meal is very fast and easy.
      Though I have tried those prepared meal places, they ussually give you a week or so's worth of food that you freeze. Found out it is easier and cheaper just to cook one day a week yourself and freeze up some meals.

                  Those that eat out this often, how in the hell do you control your diet and or calorie intake. Oh and please just do not say you pick healthy items. I know first hand how much butter goes into a veggie dish at a restaurant.

                    They are around in many places and the assorted franchises are growing as well. Basicly they prepare several dishes for you and you freeze them. All you need to do is defrost and cook or just cook. Perks are you know it was made fresh and is not full of crap ingrediants (ala tv dinners), flip side it is butt ass expensive.

                        I am always busy but still need to feed the family so I usually cook in bulk. When I make meatloaf, I will make 6 of them and freeze 5, lasagna I will make 5 or 6 of them.

                        I have one of those machines that suck all the air out of the special freezer bags and seal them so not only do I cook things in advance....if I am cooking something fresh and we have leftovers I will freeze up single servings of the leftovers so the kids can just pop in a bag of pasta in the microwave and within a few minutes have a plateful of homemade pasta ready to eat.

                                my main consideration is if i spend 1 hour cooking a day that i could have spent working how much money did that cost me? far more than any meal could have cost me.

                                  There were times when I'm really running out of time to prepare for my own food. However, I still prefer preparing them myself.

                                        Humans have to take breaks from work or productivity decreases and affects revenue potential....taking the time to cook healthy meals does a body good, giving you an excellent internal environment....for mental acuity....it's an investment, long term....

                                          I for one actually like cooking. Weekdays, I don't get much time to cook so I usually just make the quick meal, but on weekends, I like making the good meals. Gotta have some hobbies

                                                i love cooking. although i have my days where i tell the boyfriend to go get a pizza or something cuz i dont feel like cookin that day.

                                                every meal takes 10-45 mins to cook. not that hard to do. not that time consuming.
                                                -power bar or piece of friut in the morning-1 min
                                                -salad for lunch 5 mins
                                                -popcorn for mid-day snack 3 mins
                                                -chicken breasts with veggies and boiled potatoes 20 mins

                                                    We just started ordering from http://www.schwans.com/ . Their food is pretty decent, some things suck though.

                                                              You need to learn cook things that are quicky and easy. Most of the meals that I cook take less than 30 minutes, some less than 10.
                                                              Only on a weekend will I cook something that takes a lot of time.
                                                              I don't endorse a god damn thing......
