Stephanie N is busting the myth that the Trim Healthy Mama plan is too expensive. Special ingredients are fun but optional. Any grocery store should give you all you need to feed your family. Once you have the principles down – you apply them to your unique budget, tastes, challenges and lifestyle. “I put off starting THM partly because I was under the impression that I had to go out and revamp my pantry with expensive stuff. Everyone who knows me knows Im so cheap...err frugal. Boy, was I wrong! Its true, I had to change a lot of things that I had and buy healthier alternatives but this plan has helped me be organized and save money. Last week, I made the Crabby Patties on pg 238 and this week I made the Egg Roll in a Bowl. I cant get over how much food that was for what I spent, and my family was full! All six of us!! If you are under the impression that this is expensive, then dont worry. For the crabby patties, the most expensive ingredient was 2 cans of salmon for a total of $6. The egg roll in a bowl is mostly ground beef ($4) and cabbage!! Try feeding a family of six at mcDonalds!! I am 5weeks into the plan...13lbs down and no complaints!!”
