What do you usually do for lunch on workdays? Pack a lunch, or eat out? I usually eat out. I'm about and about all the time for work and there's great restaurants at my finger tips so I usually eat out. I've come to realize I'm spending well over $200 a month just on lunch. Yikes.
I used to, but found that drinking more water helped. Not that I have healthy eating habits, just that I hate eating big lunches.
i stay at home now, but when I did work, I would generally try to cook extra at night to have a good amount of leftovers in the morning. Lunch every day or so out adds up a LOT. And, as I've seen from close friends and family who have many lunch meetings, it's generally crap eating that puts on bad gut weight
it's weird..when I'm stressed/due to lack of employment or lack of funds, i eat crappier food/candy. when i'm less stressed/have more readily available funds FOR crappie/junk food, I tend to eat is far less often. Even though I can afford a bag of Butterfingers, I convince myself I don't need them. But if I'm stressed/out of work, i can con myself into buying it (kind of a reward for dealing with crap I guess)
Usually take left-overs for lunch, but our working group usually does lunch about once a week - which usually turns into either Pho or hot-wings.
When I had a regular M-F job, I always packed a lunch. Couldn't afford going out. I get per diem now, so that solves that. Sent from my baller ass iPhone 5 FAMS!
My problem is leftovers aren't really an option because I don't have microwave access. I'm thinking about buying some hoagie rolls and making my own subs.
Yeah... it's a fallback for me, but I do get tired of it. It's just so accessible though. There's a Subway everywhere. I think I actually heard that there are more Subway shops in the US than there are Starbucks.
Eat out. I am horrible about packing a lunch, even though I know it would save me well over $100 month.
