Healthy Eating

   I am all about eating healthy on a regular basis with the occasional splurge of a cheeseburger or a steak sandwich. What I am just trying to figure out is how to eat healthy on a budget. I find that it is so expensive to eat healthy. You always see all the fattening foods on sale such as frozen pizza's, candy and chips but, what about the fresh produce and the healthier meats. When they do go on sale it's not very often so it's not like you can stock because you can't stock up on produce it will just go bad.
    I can see why it is easier for people to turn to the frozen and boxed processed foods because that is what is easily available to people on a grocery budget. I even use coupons but, when trying to eat healthy couponing does you no good because their are never coupons for healthy foods and once again if their are it is not very often.
   I have come to find that what you spend for one or two healthy meals could be your weekly budget for all your groceries if you weren't eating healthy. This is what is so frustrating all you hear is eat healthy, exercise but both of things are hard for everyone to afford. What we need to keep in mind is that we can still eat healthy on a daily basis even of your fridge isn't stocked with all healthy foods we just need to be a little more careful. It's all about portion control.
   I wish eating healthy was easier but for me it's not. The right thing to do would be the healthy choice but sometimes it is easier to go the easy route and just swing through a drive thru.
