Registered members do not see ads. Register or logon for a better view.
The reason I ask is because, i'm so bad at cooking and I eat out a lot (i have a bar and resturant in my complex on the water) so after thinking what I spend in all my food consuption including buying groceries and eating crappy meals, what do I spend?

I found a few companies that will ship me a months supplie of ready to eat meals for about 300 bones... saw it on tv...

has anyone done this???

i figure $350-$450 depending what i'm in the mood for. that deal doesn't sound bad for $300. does it include the basic 3 meals a day? i eat 5-6 meals a day so that may not work for me.

I think its a pretty good deal...although...you have to plan shit out and account for times away from home and times when your appetite is gonna be a little more than usual due to miss mary jane paying those visits...if you can do it and stick to it...you'll save not only cash, but prob be healthier and lose weight if thats what you want as well.

sounds like a good deal if the food is decent. the only downside is you are forced to eat it. end of the month and only get whats left.

Never tried it.

I eat a high protein diet. This can be expensive or not.

Example:
Steak, brown rice, veggie=$10ish
Eggs, brown rice, veggie=$3ish

I spend $100-150 on protein powder, protein bars, etc.

Not anywhere near as much as I spend on alcohol.

In regards to the monthly program, it sounds like a decent deal provided we're not talking about frozen meals here. Yuck.
