Hey, how often do we think we’re helping ourselves by buying healthy food … only to have it go bad in the fridge? Here’s some great tips to help you in this fast paced world.
1. Use Spray Whenever You Can.
Cooking spray can mean less oil and thus, less calories. There are various kinds available. Pick the one that works best for you.

3. Become A Coupon Hunter.
Check for coupons and your store’s weekly sales. It may take a bit more time, but you’ll find more money in your pocket.
4. Embrace Greens.
Adding healthy greens to each meal adds volume and nutrients. They are a great way to “fill up.”
5. Get Ahead!
Making meals in advance allow you control what you eat. It also decreases the risk of going out for that fast food run.
6. Become Proficient At Cooking.
Prepare multiple servings of protein. This will save both time and money. You may not be able to buy greens in bulk, but proteins are different.
7. Boil Some Eggs.
This low fat protein packs a punch of vitamins and nutrients. You can pass on the butter or oil. Eggs are cheap and easy to eat.
