I cannot believe the amount of calories that are in some things. I never really bothered looking until MFP and am shocked at some of the numbers I see. Really makes you think twice about what you eat. The unfortunate thing is that alot of my favorite things are so high in calories. How do I find low cal things that will satisfy my cravings without breaking the bank?

    Buy in bulk and when it is on sale buy lots and freeze it.

    Be more specific. What are some of your favorite things? There are many alternatives or modifications that can be made to make things healthier and lower cal.

    Try sharing... Most portions are WAY too big. Buy one and share with a friend. You both get something you enjoy and in a more reasonable portion size.

    My wife and I haven't bought seperate meals in 6 months. Saves money too :wink:
