If you have to work out how do you like to have lunch?

[thegreenyogi]

Do you eat out at a restaurant? Do you take your pack lunch with you? If you do, do you prefer to eat inside your office or outside somewhere? And do you have lunch alone or in company?

[Zack-Bann]

I don’t have preferences as to how as long as the food itself is good


Typically on a work day I either eat out, take my food to go and eat at the office, eat at the cafeteria, or make my food if I’m working remotely


I wish I could be more consistent with meal prep and such but the reality is: I can’t.

It's quite understandable that you can't keep up the preparing your own meal routine considering the busy life you lead. I'm sure you're very meticulous with the food you choose to eat out regardless...

Make my own lunch and I work from home if I'm not traveling so in the backyard or at the kitchen lol

[thegreenyogi]

I like your backyard... Lol!

[Friendlybro79]

It is the best lol.

When I have to work out, I like to have a refreshing and light lunch that keeps me energized. I enjoy packing a lunch and finding a cozy outdoor spot to eat, surrounded by nature. There's something invigorating about fresh air and a good meal. I prefer to eat in company, as sharing a meal often leads to engaging conversations and new culinary inspirations. 🍱🌳

I never eat lunch. And it started because I work out. When I was in a Private Equity firm we had a gym in our office tower and the firm paid for our memberships. I started going to the gym at lunchtime. Given that I spent an hour at the gym I didn't feel it was right to also take time for lunch. Eventually it dawned on me that I wasn't getting hungry from skipping lunch. And I realized that I'd only been eating 3 times a day because I had been trained from birth to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner at set times.

I wasn't eating because I was hungry. I was eating because the clock said 12:00. How stupid is that? So I just stopped eating lunch unless my body tells me it needs food. That only happens maybe once every 2 or 3 months. So I eat in the morning around 6AM and again in the evening around 7PM. Sort of intermittent fasting but I had no concept of that when I started. I never get hungry or crave food. I just keep busy and I don't miss lunches at all.

When I was still working in an office, it was some 20 km away from home, so there weren't that many options. I liked to divide the week in 2 to 3 days at a bar/restaurant, where they served excellent food and snacks for a reasonable price. Waiters were very nice as well, so that's always a good point. The other 2 to 3 days, I would get something from the supermarket and have that at the beachfront.

On a few occasions where work demandad I stay in the office, eating inside felt like having no break at all.

Meals are a part of my job and thus provided by my work and why I usually eat in company (both coworkers and children).

If I know I don't like what is for dinner, I'll be taking salat or skyr with me - tho we can always just take some rye bread and what we wish. I'll be taking snacks with me during weekends as well.

Many times due to my work and not always having a set location or the location is not in a office a local restaurant or taking food with me is better. I made i know what's in it and I'll enjoy it.

Alone at times is nice to relax and reflect and other times nice to enjoy company while eating.

I never have lunch at work, or I might just have a snack.

I get up early in the morning and I have a breakfast/dinner and that lasts me until I get home at night.

[Xawyx-2]

I prefer eating at home, I rarely eat in restaurants.

If I have to work out, I would eat before, or after, I don't pack lunch with me.

I can eat inside my office.

I prefer eating alone.

[jazzy34]

I bring my lunch. We only get a 30 minute lunch break. Therefore, not really enough time to go out and get something.

[slatyb]

I packed lunch because it was stupid expensive to eat lunch out every day. I just took the leftovers from the previous night's dinner.

[Staximus]

I go to a Del Taco around the corner or bring my lunch at one job. The other is a restaurant and sometimes they make lunch, or I just wait to eat before or after work when it's a short shift.

[Shiprex]

My workplace provides lunch so I don't eat out or pack lunch.

[CaptainSmartass]

I take my own lunch in and I eat at my desk while reading the BBC local news page.

Simples...

[Yellovv]

I am eating my lunch in my company kitchen, I am not giving any extra money for food...
