Make your own lunch

OMG... I'm broke!

The waitress at your favorite eatery may know your order by heart; but that’s probably not good for your waistline or perhaps your wallet too.

Pack your lunch instead and you can easily help both. Making your own meal allow you to control over fat and calories. For instance, a typical take-out sandwich has about 200 calories worth of mayonnaise. While your homemade sandwich can be 50 to 100 calories if you use a tablespoon of light mayo. The cash you will save can add fast too…

But hey, always remember to change course every day if possible. If not, you’ll get bored faster than you know. Do it a few times a week and you’ll see your figure and finances will thank you for it.

My suggestions is that you can make one main course for example sandwich, wheatmeal falafel wrap, rice or salad. Then have your lunch with fruits. There you go!
