Step One: Figure Out Your Schedule

Start by looking at an average day in your life. How many meals can you eat? When are you the busiest? When do you have the most time to cook? If you work from home, chances are you’ll have an easier time preparing three to four meals per day. If you’re a busy executive who’s constantly working long days and rushing in and out of meetings, you may find that you need a quick and easy breakfast, a few snacks, and a big dinner.

Regardless of your schedule, figure out what sort of meal plan would be easy for you to follow in terms of timing and write those meals down, times and all.
