I spend too much money on food

[13177]

MC for 2 weeks. 95% of food for the last 2 weeks are cooked/make at home.

 

Only time I eat out is to Mac after the CL final.

 

I ran out of food in the fridge liao, this morning eat ham & cheese (no more liao) without bread. I am surprise I am not hungry.

 

I think I have got used to lessor & lessor food intake over the past 2 weeks.

 

Anyway, I prefer not to eat out too often, as outside food is mostly not very healthy. Save money is a bonus for me.

Outside food confirm not healthy, they are always too saltly!

It takes less than 5 mins to pack a sandwich for breakfast. Much more healthy than most Singapore breakfast imo.

 

I used to often take economy beehoon & nasi Lemak (still like) etc, for breakfast, & its not very good for the heart & I think also affect blood pressure, cholesterol level, so much oil & eggs are used often. Not to mention MSG.

 

Think once in a while is ok, imo.

Makes you fat also. I lose quite a lot of weight since I change my lifestyle. But the temptation of food is always tehre, especially in Singapore, when food are so easily available, especially snakes & fingers food.

 

I was guilty of eating too much snack like curry puff, bao between meals.

Now that we get a better gauge of how much you earn by the heartache you feel on your spending.

Agreed, outside food really affect your heart, blood pressure and cholesterol level. That's why i tried to exercise more often, and hope it can reduce the bad effect of outside food.

Around a thousand bucks on food. Not too bad lah if you are taking home 5 figure income. Consider it an enjoyment or to pamper yourself.
