Boring Meal Strategy
Using repetitive meals to reduce decision fatigue and overeating.
Repeating the same meals removes the need to constantly decide what to eat. This reduces mental effort and limits opportunities for impulsive choices. Familiar meals also make portion control easier because you know what to expect. Over time, this approach creates stability and supports consistent intake.
