Still think meal prepping Sunday is the only way? I gave it up after a work trip to Dallas.

I was in Dallas for a week helping wire a new complex and tried prepping Sunday night before I left - by Wednesday everything was mush and I spent $40 on fast food anyway. Has anyone else found a better rhythm that actually works with a crazy schedule?

Wait, Wednesday prep keeps things fresh that long without turning to slime?

Just meal prep on Wednesday instead, problem solved.

Wednesday makes the least sense in the whole Sunday vs Wednesday debate because you are literally splitting the difference between two weekends. The real trick is accepting that meal prep is a two day a week thing and just giving up on the idea of a single perfect day. Everyone gets so hung up on this one magic prep day when really the whole system is just about making your future self less angry at you. Wednesday prep is just admitting you failed at Sunday prep without actually solving why you failed. What people actually need is to figure out their own personal food spoilage timeline and then work backwards from there instead of following some instagram routine that looks good but rots on day four.
