Sorry buddy thats pretty cheap for food per day. I spend $20-$30 in groceries for myself. But these people are going to buy the food, cook it, package it, and ship it to you…plus make a profit on top of that. You aren’t gonna find much cheaper than Nutrisystem:

I hear the meals from Nutrisystem aren’t too good tasting but you get what you pay for.
Nutrisystem is $319.95 per month(free shipping and handling). And if you buy two months worth you get two free weeks.

Also the 3 Hour Diet(is more expensive but I hear the food taste a lot better).

3 Hour Diet is about $558(plus shipping and handling) per month with one additional week of free food.

Sorry I don’t know much about Jenny Craig. But prepackage meals are expensive and the cheaper it is the more like crap its gonna taste.(I dont know if taste is a deciding factor for you though). Nutrisystem is cheaper but like I said the food doesn’t taste great and its deliveried monthly(therefore not too fresh), 3 Hour Diet is all natural, better tasting, and deliveried weekly for better freshness; but is CRAZY expensive.

If you haven’t given up entirely on buying and cooking your own food:

First you should eat every three hours. Constantly eating boost your metabolism. If you skip meals your body goes into “starvation” mode since it doesn’t know when it will be fed next whenever you do eat it stores extra fat.

Remember you aren’t eating more calories you are eating the same(Well more precisely the recommended calories for your weight) but more often. Instead of three big meals, you’ll eat 5-6smaller meals. This boost your metabolism making weight loss easier.

Also try not to eat late at night try to eat dinner by 7pm definitely no later than 9pm. This is what I hear from many people and my kickboxing coach and also my kickboxing book. “We’ve asked you to eat five times a day- don’t fret. You won’t gain fat, especially if you know a thing or two about basic nutrition. Remember that eating every three to four hours revs your metabolism, which is one way your body burns calories.” – The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Kickboxing by Karon Karter and Guy Mezger.

Heres what the schedule should look like
7am Breakfast
10am Snack
1pm Lunch
4pm Snack
7pm Dinner
9-10pm Light Snack if still hungry. Or you can eat it right after your Dinner.

Now as for what you should eat for these snacks and meals I’ll leave up to you here are some good ideas you can mix and match these meal items to create your own diet.

Breakfast:
1)Cereal with Low fat milk. Something like Special K, Cheerios, or Frosted Wheats.
2)Oatmeal
3)A few slices of turkey bacon, couple pancakes or few pieces of toast, a piece of fruit
-A glass of 100% Juice. Usually the cheapest pure juice is apple or orange.

Lunch:
1)A sandwich take your pick ham, turkey, chick, beef, pb and j, just try to avoid too much mustard, mayo, or any other sauce. Slap on some low fat cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, or whatever veggie you like and enjoy. Oh yeah try wheat bread its a lot better for you.
2)Also the same as making a sandwich buy a sub from Subway.
You can eat the sandwich with a “Grab” size bag of baked chips.

Dinner:
1)Grilled or baked chicken breast or fish fillets seasoned it how you please. Remove the skin do not bread the chicken or fish, fry it, or add too much salt to it. Sides: Your choice of veggies: I personally love either corn or steamed broccoli.
One baked potato avoid sour cream, adding a lot of butter, bacon bits. Try to keep it as close to a plain potato as possible. Or one potato chopped up and roasted with herbs is good too.
2)Homemade Hard or Soft Tacos: Use ground turkey instead of ground beef(if you do decide to use beef use lean beef), Romaine or Green Leaf Lettuce(healthier than Iceberg), Tomatoes, 2% Milk Shredded Cheddar Cheese, Topped with salsa is you like, wrap in perferrably corn torilla (corn is slightly better than flour, but flour is ok) or place in taco shells.
3)Grilled Hamburgers:Like before use ground turkey if not at least lean beef. Grill over charcoal it adds great flavor to the meat along with dripping off extra fat/grease if you dont not have a charcoal grill or time to grill look into getting an inside grill such as a George Foreman Grill though you do not have the same add taste from the charcoals you will still benefit from extra fats dripping off the meat. Use whole wheat buns. 2% milk cheese, and the extra veggie toppings you may like. Add additional condiments sparingly if at all. What good are hamburgers without french fries, huh? To avoid cook fries in a healthier way try frying them in olive oil(olive oil is pretty expensive though compared to corn/vegetable oil) or bake the fries in the oven. Place in a pan and use only a little vegetable oil to prevent fries from sticking and set oven to broil turning over when the fries are golden brown. The fries will be healthier than deep frying them and still have that crunchy crispy fried taste.
4)Big salad with grilled chicken. Watch the salad dressing that usually screws people up.
5)I’m not a big fan of red meat but you can eat it every so often, try to get lean beef or pork and go for grilling or baking it similar to the chicken and fish. Serve with your sides of veggies you like.

Snacks:
1)1-2 servings of fruit or veggies. Celery, Apples, Bananas, Raisins, just to name a few.
2)Handful of nuts lightly salted.(My favorite cashews)
3)Grab size bag of baked chips
4)2 oatmeal cookies(iced or raisin are fine too)
5)1 bag of 100 calorie snacks. They come in snacks flavors like Oreos.
6)My favorite: a fruit smoothie. I usually go to Sonic they have great strawberry banana smoothies and I see they just started a Double Berry smoothie I need to go try. And of course you can make your own smoothies at home if you wish.
7)Yogurt
8)Small salad
9)Airpopped popcorn is actually pretty good for you. Its not until you add the butter and salt that its becomes unhealthy.
10)Granola bars

Drinks
-You need to drink at least 8 glasses of water throughout the day.
-Try to drink one cup of white or green tea. I personally like Snapple’s White Tea infused with Strawberry you can buy the packages and brew at home within minutes.(Unsweetened)
-I know if you have the urge how hard it is to cut out all bad foods from your diet so for dinner you can have one diet soda or glass of crystal light
-Try to drink only 100% juice many “juices” out there are only about 20% real juice. Even then drink sparingly because many juices have a lot of sugar regardless.(You may want to try reduce sugar juices)

Try to think of it not as much of a change of “diet” than a change of your lifestyle. Most people only change their diet to reach their weight loss goals, then they end up gaining it back. You have to actually change your eating habits permenatly and healthily to keep yourself at the proper weight.

If you want to keep trying to cook your own food but keep more easily track your caloric intake I suggest the 5 factor diet. Its the same thing I said before about eating 5 times a day, but they’ll give you recipes and a log so you can monitor exactly how many calories you are intaking along with a custom fitness plan.

I like the rich chocolate royal shake from slim fast. It honestly doesn’t taste bad at all. You can just pretend it’s chocolate milk! Hope this helps. Oh, and diet food has no flavor! Just eat sensibly.
