90% of the time, yes...I stick to the plan. I may change up breakfast or lunch if we've got leftovers or no one's hungry (or if I've forgotten an ingredient.) Dinners are what I have planned unless we have an unexpected emergency.
I don't care for cooking, and I hate deciding what's for dinner that day even more. Meal planning takes me 15 to 20 minutes a week and I can't imagine NOT doing it.

That's really awesome you do that for lunch & breakfast as well,
Do you stick pretty much to plan on all three meals for the week ?Quoting michiganmom116:
Always. It helps me save money, saves my sanity, and I can see at a glance if I'm missing any nutrients.

Excellent you stick so close to plan,
am not a fan of cooking either so yes it sure does simplify things.
Anything that makes our lives easier has to be a good thing :)Quoting michiganmom116:

Ha! No way.
6 pm rolls around and it's
"What's for dinner?"
" dunno,what do you want?"

I always do it helps me be more organized, I have a terrible memory so it helps me alot. Also helps save big money, I would say we save $60 a week at the grocery store. I just plan dinner.
