What are you eating Richard? It doesn’t have to be the best fillet steak. Chicken thighs are ridiculously cheap and with a big plate of vegetables or salad are delicious. I just put them in the oven with some oil dribbled over and salt and pepper and cook for about 45 minutes on a reasonably hot oven until the skin is nice and crispy. A small joint of gammon from Aldi is also very reasonable and can be eaten with eggs or cooled and sliced and eaten cold. Quality sausages, ie not full of oats, are another good choice. Eggs and cheese are good sources of protein too. I love a boiled egg as a snack when I’m feeling peckish and don’t want to reach for the crisps. Have a look at the Food/carb queries + recipes thread for inspiration. Apologies if you already know all this, but you shouldn’t need to bankrupt yourself to eat well. Let us know what you’re eating and maybe some of us can make some suggestions.
It's all relative to how much you've got coming in to what you need to spend. I live alone. A couple with good jobs two incomes coming into the household there would be no problem.
Wow! £1000 a month. That’s awful. I’m sorry if I’ve offended you, that was my never my intention, I really did it in your best interests. Hope things start to look up for you soon. Please reach out if you do need some advice on anything. No judgment on here.
It's cool. I very rarely get offended. Not my style.
I do buy reductions, yellow stickers but that tends to be unhealthy products.
I did think that but we’ll pop to optician first it might be quicker if she calls ahead for us if needed. Obviously if she can’t see him we’ll call 111 for advice. Thanks.
If she can’t see him then maybe suggest she needs an optician herself.
Have you been tested for Helicobacter Pylorii? I had ulcer after ulcer for over 30 years. Turned out it was that bacteria which is well known for causing ulcers. I had antibiotics for it and haven't had a repeat.
