So, what do you picture when you see the title ”Good healthy lunch ideas when hunger hits?” Boredom, horror, people frowning…

---

These days we have so many lunch options, which can be bad or good especially when we are hungry. Let’s be honest, it’s so hard thinking straight when you’re hungry and your walking past that Krispy Cream stand (which is, by the way, the best donut in the world :)) or McDonald’s. Tell me about it, it’s not easy. Those are the kind of moments you’ve wished you had read my Good healthy lunch ideas blog:) 

There are a lot of unhealthy food options around but if you know where to look, you will find that there also are a lot of good options out there as well. So let me give you 4 great ideas and let me introduce to you ‘’ Good healthy lunch ideas when hunger hits’’

Tip 

If you’re really that hungry and you can’t control yourself anymore in the store, fast-food restaurant or wherever you are at that particular moment, grab a banana or other fruit. This will help you not to buy things you will regret later on, make sure you do it in a subtle way and please pay for that banana thanks:)

Idea 1

Salad with carbs and protein 

Always go for a nice salad with protein, ( chicken, fish, chickpeas) and carbs. I can tell you right now, once you have finished something healthy like this, you will feel full and you will have no regrets whatsoever because you know you have eaten all the good stuff.

---

Idea 2 

Soup with vegetables, carbs, and protein

This is a really good one: If you want to stay full, buy a nice healthy soup with vegetables, carbs, and protein. Once you are finished with this, you will feel full and satisfied because you’ll know that you’ve done the right thing!

 

---

Idea 3 

Quick self-made salad 

This is an idea to make a quick and cheap salad for yourself at work. Buy avocado, tomatoes, microwave brown or whole-wheat rice, and some ready to eat chicken. Mix it up and you will have a good meal which will taste so much better than junk food and it benefits your body.

---

Idea 4 

Healthy shop/stores

This one depends on how big your budget is, and how healthy you want to eat, but try but to avoid junk food restaurants and instead go to stores like Pret Manager https://www.pret.co.uk/en-gb#, POD https://www.pod.co.uk. At these places, you will have a wide range of good healthy products. You can eat-in or takeaway.

1 pack of Makreel
Hummus
Dark crackers

---

Tip 1# 

•  Calculate exactly what you need for shopping.
• Before going to the shop for your weekly shopping calculate exactly what you can spend on groceries and write it down. This helps so much especially if you are on a very tight budget.

Tip 2#

Cook portion for 2 days in a week:So for example:

•  If you would cook on a Monday you will have meals for Tuesday and Wednesday
•  If you cook again on a Wednesday you will then have meals for Thursday and Friday
•  If you then cook extra on a Saturday you will then have meals for Saturday, Sunday and left over for Monday
•  And then the cycle repeats, this will save you a lot of money, trust me.

(Check out this great link for more meal planning ideas https://transactions.sendowl.com/stores/4842/45248

Tip 3#
• Buy your fruit and vegetables on the market if possible.
It is very easy to go to your nearest grocery store but believe me, just find out where your nearest market is and I will tell you, you will get so much more fruit and vegetables for lesser the money. Don’t believe it, go check it out yourself:)

Tip 4#
•  Always make sure you have plastic containers in your house no matter what because those leftovers can save you a lot of money.
You can find these online, your local shops, your pound shops or whichever currency you use but it is essential to have this in your home to save a lot of money.

Keep reading pros& cons are on their way:)

---

The Horror:

I used to live somewhere in London where I had to take the bus to get to a big grocery store like Asda to buy groceries because we did not discover the pleasure of how to buy groceries online. So every Saturday it was the same story my wife and I moaning, complaining and pro casting BIG time not wanting to spend our precious Saturday in the grocery store and then had to go back home.

---

I can still remember it as it was yesterday: 

And then that special day came: it was a hot and sunny day:) we ordered our grocery the evening before, picked our slot for the next day delivery and then the bell rang: Asda delivery. I opened the door a friendly delivery guy with a trolley gave me all the groceries, I signed and off he went.

My wife and I were still in an open jaw position when we did realize we have all of our groceries in-house in just 5 minutes, I will never ever forget that special day:) We had discovered to buy groceries online Hallelujah:)

---

The pro’s & cons of online shopping: 

So for all you survivors who still have to travel to buy groceries or people with absolutely no time at all to buy groceries, I present to you: pros and cons of online shopping whoop whoop🙂 

Pros: 

• It saves time– no more traveling, busy groceries shops, long queues etc. That Saturday morning is yours again.
•  It saves gas money – if you’re driving
•  Quality and Freshness– Stores try to send their best products
•  Delivery- Delivery to your front door how cool is that!
•  The end of overspending– No more going in grocery store with a list eventually going out with so many other nice things you weren’t planning to buy- You know what I’m talking about:) + when you online shop you can always see what the status of the amount is so this will also stop you from overspending.

 

Cons: 

• Substitute– When things might be out of stock they grocery might give you a substitute option.
•  Discount products– Unfortunately, no discount which you can find a lot when grocery stores heading to the closing time.
•  No quality check for yourself– Unfortunately no products you can check before you buy them because you’re not physically in the shop yourself.
•  Tempting– Depends on how big your budget is but it is very easy to just click on everything if you know what I mean:)

---

So there you have it online grocery shopping made easy just for you:) 

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me, I’m here to help you.

Healthy living, Weekly shopping

 

Even when we’re not in the mood or that couch is waaay too comfy, we all know that we have to get it: OUR WEEKLY GROCERY SHOPPING!
So within this post I will give you 4 great weekly shopping tips for your weekly shopping, you can call me your weekly shopping guide if you want:)

1. Never leave your home without a shopping list:

Yes, you know why because most of us are impulsive buyers no judging of course:)
Helps weight loss because you just buying what is on the list and not more.

2. Never ever go shopping with an empty stomach:
Why? back to the impulsive buying because if you do I can tell you right now you will regret it because we all know that once we are hungry were not that strong mentally walking near the sweets and crisps shells:) 

 

3. Don’t buy an overload of fruit and vegetables:
Fruit and vegetables have so many benefits for us but to buy an overload of this in just 1 day is such a shame because you will find out you probably will not eat everything which means you end up throwing all that hard earned money away.

 

4.Plan your weekly groceries shopping for the next week:

If you are shopping yourself this is a must.
