Dear Flame,

First of all, you can do this!❤️

I am on a super tight budget too.

I go for walks, and am try to avoid eating any foods with refined sugar or flour.

This means if I am out I am no longer tempted by cheap, high calorie foods.

It forces me to pack food.

I hope this tip helps!

Have a great week!

Some veggies are really good value - carrots turnip cabbage lentils etc..broccoli is lovely but quite pricey so I steam it with leek and cabbage to bulk it out, then put whatever protein/meal I’m having on top..

Planning meals saves both calories and cash, as does eating real food and not pre-packaged convenience meals. Lots of vegetables is also helpful.

Hi, Flamingocrazy , welcome.

Eating fewer meals saves money.

If you "slim smart" weight loss is not so hard! It is not all about motivation and masochism.

Some of us here find that what works is a combination of The Low Carbohydrate, High-Fat (LCHF) diet (see the forum here on Health Unlocked) and Not Snacking All Day AKA Intermittent Fasting (IF). See:
