That looks pretty cool.
There is a lot of debate surrounding the 6 meal a day plan. I like to incorporate intermediate fastening 5 days a week, so many of my calories are being consumed in 2 meals. With 2-3 snacks thrown in. For me, 6 meals is just too much.
I was doing my meal prep on Sundays. I'm going back to doing this. It was great when I did it. I was able to cook my meals for the week while listening to my audio books. Loved it. Plus, I get to throw my meals in the microwave is pretty sweet.
I always thought I just had a high metabolism, but it turns out I have reactive hypoglycemia...basically I gotta eat every 3 hours or I get sleepy, and if I eat too much at one time, I get sleepy. I actually do 7 "meals"...really it's 3 smaller-size meals, plus 4 snacks. Current schedule:
4am: Workout
5am: Morning snack
7am: Breakfast
10am: Brunch snack
12pm: Lunch
2pm: Afternoon snack
5pm: Dinner
6pm: Dessert
Sounds like a lot of food, but most people snack throughout the day anyway (vending machine etc.). Sample meal plan: (everything homemade & in portions about half the size you'd normally eat...small meals)
5am snack: yogurt with fruit compote
7am breakfast: breakfast burrito
10am snack: crack chicken quesadilla
12pm lunch: panini sandwich (turkey, moz, spinach, tomatoes)
2pm snack: granola bars
5pm dinner: meatloaf, corn on the cob, dinner roll
6pm dessert: double peanut butter cookies
Once you get used to meal prep, it's pretty easy. The only semi-tricky part is fitting all of the macros into IIFYM for the day, so you have to learn how to make macros for your meals, divide them up, and then make them fit into your meal plan for the day. I like IIFYM because you can basically eat whatever you want; you're not stuck with plain chicken & broccoli day after day after day.
I switched from bulk meal prep to what I call "gourmet small-batch macro-fitted meal prep", haha - basically making foods I like to eat in a regular or large batch & then dividing those up, but not making a million of them, just a half dozen or dozen containers - that way I don't overdose & avoid getting sick of the stuff I like to eat. For me, the biggest beneficial tool has been having a deep freezer where I can store everything in quantity.
After a good ten years of working on my own diet, I don't think food timing really matters for regular day to day living. I've done one meal a day, I've done 6 meals a day, no real difference. My personal food philosophy, at this point in time, is that pretty much all weight-loss diets boil down to eating less calories than you take in, then using macros to improve your intake for growth (IIFYM is a convenient acronym), getting enough sleep & going to bed early, and exercising on a regular basis (for me, daily, for digestive reasons, separate story tho).
For me, a big thing I came to realize with meal prep is the difference between theory & practice. It's easy to write it all out & have it sound boring or limiting, but during the course of a day, when you get hungry & you have a TV dinner tray of one of your favorite meals just a microwave cycle away from eating, it's pretty dang awesome. Building up a decent supply of freezer meals you can cycle out is even better because then you can rotate a variety of meals to keep things semi-new.
