    Yes most certainly. But I am a spoiled brat. In Sweden everybody is spoiled!

      Lunchtime musings - nothing important here :) Since I started working from home (early in the Covid-19 pandemic) I rarely break for lunch. I eat while I work - usually reheating leftovers. I am curious what others do. Do you prepare a fancy meal? Step away from work for some amount of time? Skip lunch altogether? Best wishes - Craig

      Lunch is more than food download; a time to reset. So, walk away. May not eat but I will be away from the desk/phone/monitor. Working from home maybe a fifteen minute nap, pet the cat, sit outside for a bit.

        I hungry I eat. I pack my lunches when I go to the office. I try to include a light snack. A small yet decent main meal for later and some fruit and veggies. Yesterday was a homemade(leftover) slice of veggy pizza, Today is rice Tomorrow the office orders food from chick-fil-a. Which is fun and unhealthy like no other. If I am at home (50%) of the time. I have whatever left over is available and probably eat too much. Planning my lunchs makes me slightly healthier

          Sometimes, I do one or the other as a work-from-home as well. There are times when there is a deadline for a project or I am just writing a blog or article and don't want to stop what I am doing. Other times, I make sure to go eat lunch with my little ones and my husband. It's a hard balance, I sometimes have to force myself to stop and walk away, eat like a real human and not zombie-stare work down and try to eat lunch at the same time.

            I always go out to lunch, it's my big meal of the day. I like just being able to relax my focus for awhile.

                Varies, some days a cous cous or rice dish at my desk, others chicken or tuna and salad way from my desk, but always make time to walk the dog at lunchtime - it gets me away from the screen and enforces a break.

                  I find it useful mentally to get out of the office for lunch. Unfortunately, being a single man, I don't eat the best and my belly would tell you it's not the greatest. :laugh:

                    seriously? prepare a fancy meal? My wife and I are foodies, so we cook. There are always leftovers. But you can surely whip something up for lunch. Breaks your thoughts away from code. That said, CV19 really elephanted with my reality and still does. I was a cubicle dweller before and now I work from home. It's weird.

                      The problem with doing stuff you like is that you naturally gravitate towards eating while doing said stuff you like. It is a problem because that's kinda shitty from the health perspective, both metabolic & mental so I force myself to get away from the home office desk for lunch.
