    It seems to be the only sustainable way to maintain an IM regiment. Skipping lunch could work too but the logistics of eating a breakfast right when you wake up and then a dinner right before bed would be outrageous. Skipping dinner would work as well but it seems to be harder to skip especially if you have any social life since a lot of that revolves around eating dinner.

    Definitely a good idea, I just haven’t gotten around to buying them. For now I settle for the basket, but it really only holds about one bags worth.

    I’ve found the best way to reduce stress is to get completely lost in something. Usually that’s a good TV show or movie, but books also work great depending on the genre. Working out was mentioned previously as not working, but a good all-in workout before the day starts seems to be more effective with preventing stress than alleviating it, at least for me.

    I have the opposite problem, I live biking distance or about a 12 minute walk from both of my closest super markets. There are some smaller markets in between but none of them have both meat and vegetables. This means I usually walk home with giant bags on both shoulders plus a backpack, or I hang them off my bike handles and walk the bike home. Ordering online means I can get larger or heavier items to my door for a negligible difference in cost. In reality most of the items I order are non-perishable anyway, so I guess Amazon would carry them as well.
