Oh man this is soooo untrue. I've been forced to eat very healthy the past few months and I've succeeded in doing it with very little money. The key is eating what you buy before it goes bad. A roasted rosemary chicken breast, 3 spears of asparagus, a roma tomato with balsamic, and 3 roasted garlic baby potatos cost about 2 bucks. I eat a nutrigrain cereal bar and a cup of peaches for breakfast, and for lunch I have a huge array of whole grain crackers and different cheeses. Baby spinach salad with olive oil and mandarin oranges, frozen edamame, blueberries, cucumber, broccoli, some last longer than others. Just eat what is gonna go bad first and stock the freezer. I always have mixed nuts on hand too.

I spend like 300 a month and eat 5-6 meals a day or more. I just eat very small meals and make things stretch.

I do notice if I eat fried stuff and other shit food, I feel like shit and my mood plunges. To me it's mandatory to make the effort.
