I was just wondering, since you're not supposed to eat fast foods, where do you guys eat? Do you just like buy a lot of groceries from the grocery store? Cuz i was thinking about going around to different fast food places and buying like cheeseburgers for 99 cents cuz im' prety much broke. but apparently that's not good for me at all. I don't have a lot of money so i'm trying to look for cheap but good food. Also, since i'm a naturally skinny guy, i was thinking the fat from fast food shouldn't be doing too much harm for me as long as i stay active, but i dunno. What do you guys think?

yeah, in reality fast food costs more than making your own. if you research online you can learn a lot about what to buy. even if you insist on having burgers soemtimes you'd be better off buying some frozen patties and making your own at home, rather than buying the stuff they sell at places like micky-d's. the fat content of fast food is astronomical and it will catch up with you eventually, for sure.
Also, when you can, avoid major chains. You'll find stuff can cost as much as 50% less if you buy from an international market (your local Asian grocery store, for example) over a Safeway, Albertsons, or whatever is in your area. Handy for when you need a small amount of something.
It makes me laugh to think how dependent people have become on prepared food that when told they shouldn't do it anymore, they can't think of an alternative.

Brown rice, bread, pasta and tuna isn't expensive.
