Dieting while poor

[playazdub]

This summer I tried using a combination of a hardcore (no cheating) ketogenic diet,and 1 1/2 month clip of anavar.results were great and have completly changed my body shape and outlook.
However now times have changed.I am unemployed,out of anavar,and can not afford the price i once paid to miantain ketosis.
my diet is now more based on cheap carbs than anything else, and what i really need is a diet that can provide high protein and go easy on my wallet.
any suggestions?

man if you can't get the protein from alot of steak/chicken breast, then well for 28 bucks you can get a bucket of whey protein...i don't know what would be cheaper than that though...

How about cans of tuna? Eggs are also cheap too.

Well, if you still want to keto diet you can eat eggs and oil packed tuna. You could also throw in some of the cheap fatty hamburger, often on sale for .99/lb for family packs.

tuna, eggs, bacon, family pack of chick thighs($8) are all really cheap.

hmmm tuna,eggs,bacon,and chicken legs seems to be the perfect ghetto keto solution.
Actually i cant stand tuna but the rest should work out.
My largest problem is that i have an untameable beast of an appetite and will,most likley, end up eating pounds of the afformentionrd products daily.
thanks.

Dude!

Dieting while poor is super easy!

You have less money so eat less-duh! Did ya ever notice that many poor people are skinny. It's cause they can't afford to eat.

The "Poor Man's Diet" is the best kind. Less money=less food=less fat on your ass.

One of the other guys at our gym put me on to a sweet thing I didn,t pay attention to at first.The grocery stores often discount the meat counter stock if it is within a day or two of it,s best before date.They tend to do it towards the evening after the rush is over.I don,t know if it's the same where you are but they all do it around here,just look for the labels and find out when they do their markdowns (early weekday evenings around here) they usually get picked up pretty quick.Load up when you can and freeze the rest,I save a ton doing this, usually at least 30%.Good luck brother and eat huge!

Heard of a guy who was into the sport who had just gotten out of jail (not sure what for..but whatever)....he lived off cottage cheese salsa and tuna...ate it all the time...if ya can handle the sodium its low cost good protein and edible
