We’ve recently started watching our budget more closely and it is incredible how much we can spend eating out here and there. I’ve also started prepping meals/food for the week on Sunday and it really helps me to stay on track.
Yesterday I was tired and not feeling well and really wanted junk food but knowing the work I had put into preparing my mason jar salad for lunch kept me on track :) and once I had a good healthy lunch It made it easier the rest of the day.

Great post, eating out can be so addicting but we need to keep it for occasions rather then on the regular. I was shocked one month looking back at the cost of eating out regularly. Home made is alot better for our health.

Great post Andie and one we all need to hear and consider.

I love cooking a big batch and freezing certain foods that handle that well. Also, if I need to go to family in WA state due to my mom not being well, I have some things that are easy for my husband to pull, thaw and warm up. So it works for me in more than one way. I don’t have to worry he is eating out every night getting all that sugar, MSG and what all from fast food and restaurants.

Now I like to go out once in awhile but I would rather eat food I know how it was prepared, that it was handled with clean hands and clean pans and bowls.

It can be expensive grocery shopping too and the one thing that will save me from over spending every time is eating before I go. If I am satisfied then I am not lured by all the snack stuff. The other thing that helps me is taking 2-3 hours on the weekend and prepping for the week.

My health, to say nothing of my wallter!! I’m already @ highest weight ever!! So it’s a NEW ME for the spring!!

I prep every Sunday and if I don’t, my whole week has gone to hell. I’ve recently taken a new job at work that is incredibly demanding and meal prep is key for me. I won’t negotiate. I started using the Crockpot more to off-set the time it takes to prep/cook healthy meals. The new Skinnytaste cookbook is great for that. This week was particularly Hellish at work. I didn’t eat out once. I was so grateful to have a stocked fridge of quick/healthy meals that I knew would fuel me through a demanding 8-9-10-11 hour day.

PS I try, and I force myself as much as possible, but I just don’t enjoy it. And when I get stuck at work late (which is often) and get home at 8 pm, the last thing I want to do is whip up dinner Sometimes take-out is the best option so I don’t eat 500 snacks.
