If so, is it for health reasons, finances or logistics?
I pack mine for logistics and finances: it's a pain for me to get away for anything decent and being HEBREW I'm too cheap.

I used to buy 2 meals at work and like 3 coffees. I added it all up, over $100 a week. I now bring my food and coffee. Saves me so much time and money. Now I probably spend $20 a week and don't have to wait in line. I know people are big on those lunches with co workers, but fuck that. Whats the point in working so you can buy food for work?
-
I just steal food from the work fridge. (No Hebrew)
-
I am bad and spend stupid money on lunch each week.
-
I work in demolition. It saves time to bring your lunch when working long hours.
-
I pack my own food. I also fill my own bottles with water. Paying for water is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen.
I got into the habit of taking leftover dinner to work the next day, always get a good meal that way.
I would drop a couple grand on a good piece of equipment and never say a word, but I would beat my own ass for spending $1 on a bottle of water. I hate wasting money.
-
When dieting, yes..... just no other options.
Otherwise, theres a place that's 2 minutes away with huge, delicious pizza slices for $5. I've gotten it +100 times, and the thought of it still makes my mouth water.

A real bodybuilder gets free lunch because its paid for by a schome.
-
I just take the lunch from my smaller weaker co-workers :)

Same here. I just spent almost 4,000 on a new kayak, but wont go to a bar tonight to waste 20 bucks.The kayak comes with a lifetime warranty. The beer I just piss out.

Got a fridge in the van. Get a toilet and I could just move in and live there.

Yes, sounds great, but do you have a river to park it near?
-
pack my own. finances primarily. even 6 bucks a day adds up to 30 a week, 120 a month, 1440.0 a year. Grocery costs remain the same wether I pack lunch or not.
-

Maybe. That's a little more information than I'm willing to just put out there.
-
No I don't. I have a good paying job and get reimbursed for meals. 8)

Outed, you park that thing next to a culvert. You don't even have enough gas money to get to a real river, pathetic.

I've got a big lunch box.
-
Every day I pack fudge.
-
Absolutely pack meals in a small cooler. Usually i have 2 meals packed and a shake. I see other people plop down $10 a day for lunch/water. That's a freaking car payment when you look at it monthly. I'd rather be healthy and save money. (Yes Hebrew)
-
I take 8 oz baked garlic and herb chicken with some potatos or rice every day.
easy to microwave and tasty.
-
Right now I'm packing lunch to save money and have better quality food. Although I do buy my breakfast at work each morning. The cafe knows me....every morning 9-10 egg whites in a cup for $2. If I don't pack lunch they know me then too. Double grilled chicken and a cup of rice.....$4.
I keep tuna and oatmeal at work year round for in betweens.
-
Yes it saves a fortune.
Im a builder and self employed and driving around to look for a shop is a waste of time and money. Wor lass makes a sandwich and puts it in the fridge and can just grape whatever else I want to take on way out in morning.
Had a labourer in a week ago and had to drive the fucker to kfc every day.

Translation: In prison they give you 3 meals a day.

I had a small kitchen in my office; a fridge and a microwave. I bought groceries in an made my lunch on days that I didn't feel like eating out.

Work out weekly cost of bought meals over the year and it will soon persuade you to bring your own bait.

It's not like groceries are free.... Yeah it saves money, but unless you're eating lunch for $10+ dollars, the difference isn't gonna be that big.
The prices Man of Steel mentioned sound on par with grocery costs

I eat out everyday for lunch, and sometimes breakfast and/or dinner. It's a vice of mine.

I do too. I tried eating at work a few times but don't want to have to small talk with some of the weirder people in my building.

Honest answer (if that's possible)...what's your BF percentage ?

No clue, but I'm 32, and my waist isn't like it was at 24. I'd say realistically, 18%, but I've never had it checked, just going by bro science and what I've seen posted. I'm 6'4 and right now am about 250, but look my best around 228 or so. Juicing in college I was 243 and had decent cuts. I am fairly active, but my job requires me to be all over the place, and the lunch thing is more of an escape. Maybe I'll start packing lunch and eating healthier, as I have a Caribbean vacation in January that I don't want to look like a typical American on. Waist size is 38, but even in good shape it was 36.

Pack this daily....

Currently unemployed but when I was working packing a lunch helped me lose weight and saved a lot of money. Eating out all the time can be very expensive.
