I love the idea of meal planning, mostly because I get to dinner time (or lunch!) & I cannot for the life of me think of what we should eat, even if I know what's in the kitchen. My problem is I can't find a way to meal plan successfully. I literally need a step by step guide

Do you write your meal plans down? On a calendar? A self-designed spreadsheet? A post it note?! Where do you keep it? How do you make sure you stick to it? Do you alter it if plans change (friends/family comes round/you stay out for lunch), or just leave it saying you had a salad for lunch when you actually went to starbucks for a mocha choca extra creamy latte with a side order of chocolate & something with cheese?! Do you have reminders for what to take out of the freezer/prepare the night before/prepare earlier in the day/batch cook? How do you stop it getting too repetitive or labour intensive? Is it for a month or a week? Am I asking too many ridiculous questions?!
Basically I think I need an app for it on my iphone

Please help this dummy
