No idea how people can eat out for lunch everyday and not be grossly overweight


I mean you can eat out every day and still eat well. Not everyone goes to Fatburger all the time.

New job and I've been eating out for lunch way too often. Do try to bring a sandwich as often as possible.

What's funny is when you leave for your break at McDonalds to go to Burger King for lunch. I bet you do that 3 days a week.

I generally cook big on Sat or Sun: grill out, make a big curry, or something. That way, I'll have lunch for most of the week. It's not hard if you plan. Saves a bunch of money in food, gas, time, etc.


Exactly what I do. I'll go to Sams Club every saturday, grab whatever hunk of dead animal is on sale, and smoke it Sunday. That and a salad for lunch the rest of the week.

Only time I really eat out for lunch is if a vendor is paying.

I eat out every day and take the maximum write off, which is about $15 per day.

I get like $25 a day for lunch but only eat like 2 or 3 days a week. I’d rather save the money.

I know girls that eat out everyday and spend $15 on lunch. They don’t make over $13 an hour. They just probably live pay check to pay check

So the men are busting arse so there women can spend $20 on sushi everyday for lunch.

I eat out everyday. But I try to avoid places with a server. For lunch, I like to keep it under $10. $15-20 lunches everyday adds up. But I'll do it every once and awhile if there good is very good. But I'm single without kids and make decent enough money where I can occasionally treat myself.

Though I work with older men who want to use a fricking coupon every day. If you don't want to spend more than $5 for lunch, don't eat out everyday.

Nope. I bring my lunch most days and eat out maybe one or two days a month.

I eat out for lunch at least four days a week. Well to be fair it’s really picking up food and eating at my desk

subsidized cafeteria. $5 gets you a lot of food, including drink a dessert

Now if you are a baller or can write off your lunch it is of course reasonable.


Clearly not a baller, can only write off 1/2 of meals.

Winn Dixie has $3.99 plate lunches. I take advantage of that on a regular basis.

Yeah the grocery store plate lunch and stuff like that is my go to as well.
I have a work cafeteria, but it’s a little expensive for the quality so I try to limit those visits
