I’m 17 and live alone. With rent, medicine, school and everything I’m finding money hard.

I’m trying to cut done in food costs. Before I was spending just over 200 for 3 weeks.

At the moment I’ve been skipping breakfast and lunch because I don’t have much food and I just eat half a can of red Kidney beans and some leftover canned carrots.

now I’m making a meal plan where I’ll eat rice and beans for breakfast with spinach, corn and hash brown for lunch, sweet potato soup for dinner. I’m thinking every Friday I can have a snack like popcorn and on Sundays I can have roast vegetables for dinner.

I am 39kg at the moment and 155cm tall so I definitely need to gain weight. (It’s not that underweight though).

I’m a vegetarian so don’t have to worry about meat. (This meal plan is vegan)

I take a multi, iron and omega supplement daily along with magnesium every 2 days.
