Hi Star. I'm from South Africa. Our family eat from our fridges rather than our pantries. Got good advice from a dietician years ago. Eat veg or salad with protein OR carbs with veg or salad. NEVER MIX PROTEIN AND CARBS. 2nd bit of advice is NEVER have sweet meals incl fruit for breakfast. Always savory. You can swap your bfast and lunch if you have sweet stuff for bfast. Initially l lost weight but have had the same ideal weight for 15+years. Just a thought if anyone is interested. Greetings from Gauteng South Africa ❤❤❤❤

I gained weight when I started couponing. I told myself this year I would stop buying the unhealthy food even if on sale.
@mrskimmieg25 күн бұрын
@ashleydominique6832 My husband and I had the same conversation a few days ago. It’s not a good deal if it doesn’t help me achieve my goal AND is a good price.
@ruthgarcia747925 күн бұрын
That’s why I never really followed food coupon deals cause of how unhealthy the foods are! Love getting more ideas on savings for healthier options. I’m soon to be a family of 5 so savings and healthy is a must 😅
@couponwithStar25 күн бұрын
I definitely feel this. It’s a constant struggle when so much of the free and cheap food is icecream and soda. I hope we continues to get more offers for healthier choices.

Look at the local butcher shops. Check out their sales day. Usually they have higher quality of the meat than grocery stores but also they have great sales if you catch them. The cheapest is buying a side of beef which is perfect if you have the freezer space. Some meat shops have lockers where you can store the meat if you have freezer space issues. An alternative. Hope this helps.

Your insights are invaluable. This video has made me see that success isn’t about avoiding failure, but embracing it and learning from it.

Please share when those steaks are on sale weather is Publix or whenever, it’s my husband favorite food too. And he is on high protein diet because he is hungry ALL THE time!!!! Thank you and you are the best! I follow exactly same rules as you do for foods! It’s insanity to pay full price!

I have a Kroger affiliate so I shop at Kroger on Fridays to get 4x fuel pts. Because of this I don't need a costco membership to save on gas. But since I buy rice at Costco, I bug a friend about once a year to go shop with them. Once I got 5 bags of 25lbs rice and people looked at me weird lol. 5 bags lasted me about 1.5 year so my friend wouldn't get annoyed next time I need their help

I’m not because I usually have a running overage because I try to shop under each week and I use that excess in weeks where I stock up. With cash, I hold on to the extra money. But if I was, I’d pull whatever extra I spent from another week or 2 since I should be able to be under with the extra meat already purchased
