Weekends break plans because life finally shows up: brunches, birthdays, “we’re ordering.” The goal is not perfect logging—it is not treating Saturday like a food blackout. Pick one anchor meal you cook, enjoy the social meal, and land Sunday with leftovers that become Monday.
Weekend playbook
- One cooked dinner you control.
- One social meal you enjoy without a spreadsheet on the table.
- One scan-first leftover remix before the week starts.
