When you look at any of the Hollywood Diets of the day you will notice one common domineer. Cost, these diet plans are never cheap and defiantly not something worth spending money on.
The problem with diets is that we are all different. Our metabolism's work at different rates, some of us use calories more one day than another and some will only ever eat and exercise based on their budget.
Budget Dieting seems to cause a lot of people to give up before they even start. But this doesn't have to be the case. It is fully possible to involve yourself in healthy eating, even if you are on a very tight budget.
This may require a little bit of extra time and effort to plan your meals, but you can make good and inexpensive food choice in order to provide your body with excellent nutrition.Yes 'health foods' are expensive but a healthy diet combined with ample exercise shouldn't require specialty foods.
Planning is the key to sustaining a healthy diet and lifestyle. This can be time consuming to start with but in the long run can save you a lot of hassle and expense. The basis for any good diet should be nutrition and cover all the major requirements for our body's to function effectively: Carbohydrates, protein, vitamins and fats.
The easiest and cheapest way to control your intake and expenditure is by making your own meals. Buy the basic ingredients for a full weeks meal plan, cook your seven days worth of foods portion them up and freezing them (remember to label them so you know what's what). Then all you have to do is re-heat them when you need. You will also find that if you are buying 'deal' foods that you will probably have a lot left over(this is why you pre-portion) that you can use over the next few weeks.
You may even find that you can skip one of your big food shops a month due to the amount of 'left-overs' you have frozen.
