Make your meals from home

While it may be more tempting to grab a ready-made meal from the shop on your way to or from work, it’s cheaper and healthier if you can resist temptation and prepare your own meals. By making your own meals, you are in control of what goes into the food; no preservatives and no extra salt or unnecessary calories are always a good move. You can control the portion size too; make larger portions and store some of it in a sealed container in the fridge or freezer so you can dip into it throughout the rest of the week.
