My partner and I are mostly living off beans and lentils we bought in bulk when things were slightly cheaper. We only really need to buy eggs, milk, tofu, and fresh veggies (with some meat thrown in when it’s on sale). It’s saved us a buttload, and we’ve never pooped so good in all our lives 😂

I moved to the big city six months ago and switched to 'weekday vegetarian' Sun-Thurs -- beans, tofu, salads. A little bit of meat on Fri/Sat bought via Too Good To Go app -- the last purchase I made was approx $81 of meat for $12 (8 bavettes, 2 packs of lamb chops, salmon steak, pack of bacon).

I'm walking a lot more (sold my car) and I feel leaner but haven't seem to loss much weight yet. I'll persist.
