beckyrogers 10 years ago	Hello again – I was wondering do I have to have a snack each day? There are some days where I am not the least bit snack hungry… I have really cut down on my meal portions and actually have left overs. I still can’t afford many of the things that I have on here – especially the whole grain breads – here that is little over $3 a loaf and the loafs are small. I am on a very strict budget so adding more money to my grocery bill is starting to wear me thin. I have only eaten 1 piece of bread in like 2 wks – cut out 95% of sugars, try to eat meals as they are listed or very close to it and my weight loss is really nothing yet to brag about 🙁 But, I was wondering if it would hurt too much if I didn’t feel hungry if I could skip a snack or would that be detremental to the program of loosing weight?

Support 10 years ago	Hi beckyrogers, There’s a widespread myth that eating healthy is more expensive than eating unhealthier processed foods. If you are worried that your grocery list will become more expensive, here are a few tips that will help you reduce the amount of money you spend: • Try to create a shopping list and stick to it. That way you will not be at risk of buying things you do not need, and over spending. • Always buy generic or store brands when possible. The quality is often the same—you’re just not paying for advertising. • Find a good ethnic supermarket. The prices will almost always be better—as will the selection of meat, fish, fruit and vegetables, spices and other seasonings—than at your typical supermarket chain. • Farmer’s markets cut out the middle man so you can buy very high-quality produce from the farmer. Go at the end of the market and ask for a discount on any remaining fruits and vegetables or bread. • Plan your cooking to create leftovers. It’s easier to cook just 2 or 3 meals a week, rather than 6 or 7: you can freeze and reheat leftovers. You’ll save time, money and power. You can also go even further and cook for the whole month at once.

beckyrogers 10 years ago	I DON’T want to become a VEGAN! I tried that several years ago and hated it…. I am a meat person – we have a lot of chicken in our freezer along with pork. I need recipes that include chicken breasts and pork. We don’t have a lot of beef cause it is too expensive and my husband refuses to do this with me – so I don’t want to have to make 2 evening meals everyday 🙁 Breakfast, lunch & snacks are fine – but we need something at dinner time for the 2 of us to enjoy – so he doesn’t gripe so much. I don’t mind a salad with my dinner meals and I live in a small community and our store doesn’t carry 1/2 the stuff you have listed on here and most I have never heard of! The farmer’s market is closed till spring. I haven’t eaten bread in a wk cause I can’t find the bread you keep saying I need.. what’s for us poor folks to make? I can’t afford a lot this stuff cause it is expensive here – I am 61 & on Social Security. I need more help. These “snacks” are getting expensive too on my budget!
