food budget

[bubbles4920]

if you had very little money to live on per week eg £20 what food, drink would you buy to maintain healthy eating if thats possible. potatoes and mince are out by the way. also any suggestions with less than this figure welcome. wondering if aldi or lidl would be cheap enough to use.

Perhaps we should ask Ed to start a subsection called 'Economy' in the 'Shopping' section.

is she avoiding carbs at night as a way of losing weight? i read somewhere that to lose weight you should avoid carbs and protien in the same meal. so maybe she could alternate and have the carbs sometimes, just not with protein.
