How do i eat 2000 calories a day without breaking the bank or getting fat?
T. minimum wage person. I budget 50 dollars every two weeks for food, and i don't feel healthy at all. I can't do better than that though. Chicken, rice, vegetables. Every single day.
I want to go to the gym, but i get shaky from hunger real easy these days.
Beans rice and the cheapest chicken breasts you can find. It's gonna be a bland life
Have none of you niggers heard about things called spcies?
Yeah that's a great way to get 200% of your sodium intake.
So Fitness is for the rich?
>he's never heard of black pepper, crushed red pepper, cumin, turmeric, etc.
What the fuck dude. Not every spice you use contains sodium. Maybe like a miniscule amount in chilli powder but you wouldn't be slapping that shit into everything you eat. Go find spices that don't have sodium. I'm not even the user you responded to but you are literally retarded and have to be corrected. Otherwise enjoy your fucked up bland fucking food.
If you're actually getting so poor that you're hungry, just eat rice and veggies.
Literally just rice and veggies.

Similar budget here. I eat oats for breakfast, coldcuts for lunch, lots of eggs, beans, spam, canned veggies for dinner. Not ideal, but it works.
Pretty sure sodium is the killer there. 200% easily.
a single slice of papa johns pizza is like 700mg of sodium.

High calorie foods tend to be the cheapest foods.
The only thing I change when I'm bulking is eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich after workouts and another before bed. It adds an extra 600-700 calories to my diet and it's easy, cheap, and I fucking love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

>2400mg of sodium
Ask your doctor for a diuretic
piss out all the sodium
Bagged dry beans are waaay cheaper. Lots more work, but retardedly cheap.
rice and pork are probably the cheapest way to doit.
/thread. Add in some frozen veggies to this and you're on your way to Gains Town™ and you'll save a pretty penny too
>Baked Beans Pizza

I don't like peanut butter, and isn't milk full of hormones and pus?
