- MadScientist68, on 10/10/2007, -0/+42Link was broken. Here is the link that I found when I searched the site.

- Kikkoman, on 10/10/2007, -2/+32How can this be on front page when the page is not even linked properly... Digg is so Rigged
- archistudent, on 10/10/2007, -4/+31The article isn't properly linked or something, and with MensHealth.com's impossible site structure, I couldn't find it.
Since when does 10 meals constitute a week?
Either way, I eat healthy for less than $50. More rice, oatmeal, and potatoes. Stay away from foods high in sodium and refined sugar. Eat fruits and vegetables that don't come in cans or the freezer. A portion of meat is usually 3-5 oz. Eating healthy is easier than it looks, just quit making excuses. - alamandrax, on 10/10/2007, -1/+22and aids. my aids helped me lose a lot too.
- Rooster99, on 10/10/2007, -0/+19Thanks Jared!

Repost - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15You must get your food from someone's garbage can then.
- civperc, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14But with shi**y fast food, exercise is far less beneficial. good foods are a necessary part of building lean muscle
- pathetik, on 10/10/2007, -14/+25I'm going to buried... but here go's...
Where's the beef ? - wheel, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12Why wouldn't you choose the one-page print link instead?

You think that muscle tissue and energy comes from thin air?
- Unremarkable, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Thats a lot of rice.
- floodyberry, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Digg is actually designed from the ground up for stuff like this to happen. Good content doesn't go anywhere if nobody sees it, but bad content submitted by someone who gets auto-dugg by 15-20 well known diggers just had their submission show up in the dugg list of everyone who befriended the well known diggers. Things like the friends list (seeing what your friends are submitting) and being able to see who dugg your story (get an idea of who is digging your stuff early) makes it trivial to identify who is scratching your back so you can scratch theirs.
Luckily the only way to attract a well known digger to start digging your garbage is to digg a large percentage of what they submit, so the system devolves in to digging based on submitter regardless of content, which was just proven by this piece of ***** making the front page. I'd wager most of the people who do the bulk work of early digging articles that hit the front page rarely read anything they digg. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7lol,
Seriously.
family of 3?
thats like 15 dollars a person which then is 2 dollars a day.
wtf? - DeskFlyer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I said what I did because the article doesn't mention exercise; some people are dumb enough to believe that you can simply eat the food mentioned in the article and magically grow more muscle and burn fat without leaving their couch. :)
- DrSpud, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Get rice, canned fish, and some veggies. Buy in bulk. You can eat for a month within $50.
- wcbzero, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Print Version, easier to read...
http://www.menshealth.com/cda/article.do?site=MensHealth&channel=nutrition&category=food.for.fitness&conitem=6a5649d66738d010VgnVCM10000013281eac____&page=0&print=true&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.menshealth.com%2Fcda%2Farticle.do%3Fsite%3DMensHealth%26channel%3Dnutrition%26category%3Dfood.for.fitness%26conitem%3D6a5649d66738d010VgnVCM10000013281eac____%26page%3D0 - buddydvd, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Yeah.... how come a broken link can reached the front page... people don't even click the link before digging? This is quite rigged.
- Vodka2389, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5They forgot to include "woman to cook it for you."
- civperc, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Subterfug and I submitted comments at the same, sorry guys and gals (here comes the onslaught of digg-downs)
- DavidRoss, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5This should read... "how to make lunch and dinner for 5 days for $50". One very healthy thing you can do is eat breakfast... and they dont account for that in the budget. and what about weekends?
- MicroBerto, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Don't forget tuna. You don't want to eat too much canned fish, but you can get a really cheap and quick meal packed with protein.
- MagicCake, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4No one expects the Ramen Inquisition!
- TheFinaleofSeem, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Well, you can lose weight without the exercise. The muscle...not so much.
- hollismb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Because you can't really buy uncooked meats in single portions at the grocery store. Or you can buy a bunch of portions, and freeze them, but then you have to buy a bunch of meats all at the same time, which means you're spending over 50 dollars. If you're single, you don't have the ability to have that sort of variety during the same week, since you don't have anyone helping you eat it/split the cost.
- emjaymj, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Agreed. For once I'd like to see a list like this that DOESN'T have you using leftovers all the time.
- Volkov137, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Why on earth would I want to keep eating the same meats two to three times in a row?
- alexanEmpire, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3do go on.....
- jtbandes, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Step 1. Buy $50 worth of fruit/vegetable seeds.
- mcmlxxii, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Mmmm canned fish, my favourite......bleagh
- hadak, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3$85 / 10 = $8.50
Cost of BigMac meal and a shake: ~$8.50
64% of me says go eat a twinkee. - alamandrax, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4and sub-sandwiches ARE good, as long as you lay off the extra mayonnaise and ranch. helped me lose quite a few pounds (along with exercise).
- emjaymj, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3McDonalds isn't really an option if you care about what you're putting into your body. $85 to eat out 10 times a week comes out to $8.50 per meal, which isn't unreasonable at all, but is also an example of why eating out is a quick way to waste your cash.
- shableep, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3well, lets see... i eat out about 5 times a week, and that easily makes it's way up to $75. and thats only because i get free lunch.
so, if i didn't have free lunch, lets say thats $6.50 for 5 lunches (no, you can't eat 2 double cheeseburgers every single damn day). that's $32.50 a week. and 5 times eating out for dinner? easily at least $11 (with tip, you cheap bastard) per meal. that's $50. so we're easily up to $87.50 a week. and that's not considering the weekend.
either way: breakfast, lunch and dinner for less than $80 per week is cheap.
and the truth is, if you're a single guy... you've usually got a little extra cash laying around waiting to be spent on some tasty food. - civperc, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5http://digg.com/health/Shop_Once_Eat_for_a_Week
- ellecon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2The more you do from scratch the cheaper it is. Flour,baking powder,eggs,oil,yeast,spices and the other accouterments needed to cook/bake are cheap...especially for the average baked good. You can make a big muffin for 15-20 cents vs.$ 2-3 dollars in a store. Flour,oil and water can be a messy paste or a tasty samosa wrapper depending on what you do with it. There is a tremendous sense of accomplishment when one has recreated a dish that would cost $40 in a restaurant for $4 or $5 through careful preparation and time. Garden or pick your own veggies/fruit and the exercise is taken care of as well. The goal should be to eat as well as you can as inexpensively as you can, not simply to find the lowest-priced nutritionally-adequate foodstuffs. Food is one of life's great pleasures and it deserves time and attention.
- cygnus2112, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Shopping List: Onions, Peppers, Vinegar, Pesto, Avocado, Black Beans, Salsa, Tabasco.. this should be re-titled "Make your ass hurt for a week within $50"
- matthewf01, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3pretty sure this has already been submitted :(
- coustoe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2you dont get a complete amino acid profile from vegetable protein, also you lose out on minerals such as iron, zinc etc... thats why vegetarians usually have health problems.
- alamandrax, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5One word. Ramen noodles. I mean TWO words. Veggie Ramen Noodles. Damn! I mean Three words microwaved veggie ramen noodles... FOUR words... I'll come in again.
- iguanapunk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I followed this last time it was posted. All I can say now is ***** OFF SHRIMP!
- SilasTomorrow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Why are you so angry?
- cloudyprison, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Thanks, the rest of us missed it 76 days ago.
- kablaaamo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Meat's one of the most expensive items on any given grocery trip.....so if you are looking to REALLY slash your grocery budget, stop buying it. Beans, pulses and nuts are far cheaper sources of protein. (Oh, remember to combine them with a whole grain carbohydrate, to get all of your required amino acids....if you do that, you're golden!)
- alamandrax, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2you could have started with "Aids for everyone! I want to give every child in needy countries aids personally." and trigger the lynch mob.
just a suggestion. - nutzngum, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1muscles feed on protien, which you get from beef, chicken, fish, bean sprouts, tofu...carbohydrates (good ones) provide energy to keep going. Food is intergral to muscle growth - if you have a crappy low-protien high-starch (ie fast food) diet your body will start burning muscle and keeping the fat.
- nutzngum, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I've done this diet for the last month and have lost almost 20 lbs - this is in conjunction with cycling to work (15km round trip) and not cheating. Well...I have a couple of fat-free yogurts in the morning and one mid-evening to satisfy my sweet tooth more than anything.
It's not a hard diet to follow, I am never hungry (and i weigh 220 lbs) and it doesn't get boring (you can substitute the meats/seafood with your own choice of meats without destroying the effectiveness of the diet). I also have a vegetarian friend who substitutes all the meat-related ingredients with soy protien.
My only recommendation - make sure you have lots of Tupperware/glad ware containers as this whole diet relies on making more than you need for the supper meal and using the leftovers in future lunches.
wasn't this posted weeks ago? or is it just resurfacing? - alamandrax, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1never cared. I microwave it with the seasoning pack (with extra water to make the soup), take it out piping hot, slurp the soup loudly (annoys my roommates), add Sriracha Hot Sauce, some Soy sauce and love every bite.
- civperc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Here's the actual article, linked properly... http://www.menshealth.com/cda/article.do?site=MensHealth&channel=nutrition&category=food.for.fitness&conitem=6a5649d66738d010VgnVCM10000013281eac____&page=0
