Balancing work and home

I've been mandated at my day job to work from the office at least two days a week. This puts a damper on my morning workout routine, and I have to wake up a bit earlier to squeeze in a workout. Then, I have to rush around to allow myself at least a half-hour, accounting for traffic and weather, to get to the office.

While I don't particularly enjoy working in person all the time, I realize I am fortunate compared to some colleagues who leave home at 5 am just to drive in.

That being said, I believe there is some benefit to finding ways to streamline and make my home life a bit easier, especially on the days I work in the office.

One of the tools I use is an app called Plan to Eat. It is SUPER helpful for me because I can plan my meals for the week, create a schedule, and it even generates a grocery list for me. * FYI, if you click the link and sign up we both get credit for it. :)

Since last July, I've lost 25 lbs, and I'm slowly but surely trying to find ways to meal prep so that I'm less likely to rely on the vending machine at work. I find this app helps me, along with My Fitness Pal - Premium.

Anyway, I thought I'd share my thoughts on things that have worked for me since going back to the office a couple of days a week.

Stay warm and be well<
