Sorry if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it

Ok, well I started on my journey yesterday...This is the problem I have, I am incredibly picky eater, also I dont make all to much and I have alot of bills to pay, so I am limited to what food I can buy...I find the healthier foods are always more expensive...I just want some pointers on how i can still eat good but keep in budget and something that I will like

Oats and eggs are cheap. Frozen veg cheaper than fresh and the nutrition is the same. Use portion control and plan your meals in advance to make best use of what you buy. Buying in bulk is cheaper than the running the shop ever few days. Use left overs as a meal the next day. Drink water as opposed to sports drink or soda which costs more. Have one fast day per week, you spend nothing doing that.

Thanks, I will be sure to keep all that in mind I dont drink much soda either so that one isn't to hard.

Hungry girl has a lot of good options, and the recipes on her blog are usually easy and fairly cheap to make.

I find that planning ahead really helps me stay on budget. Stick to the same general foods so you can buy bulk in the beginning of the week and portion everything out into individual bags or containers. Good luck!
