Goodness, some of you seem to have such great discipline. I guess it''s hard for us because eating well / eating out is part of our chosen lifestyle. We''ve cut down on other areas like shopping for clothes, shoes and buying knick-knacks for the house which aren''t necesssary or which we may not keep long-term. We figure, we''ve worked so hard, we have to reward ourselves with something and foods and drinks are not something that we''re willing to cut down.
Groceries are another area where we spend a lot of money on. We easily spend $300-400 a week on food shopping (excluding going out), so our eating out (not counting things like Starbucks) is not so much compared to our groceries. We''ve also chosen to have proper lunches instead of fast food (that stuff is so bad for us). What we haven''t done though is buy organics completely (we buy some). I''d hate to think how much our bill would shoot up if we did!
