I'm a full time student and I have extremely limited funds. I can afford maybe $40 a week on food. I need cheap foods that are basically high in proteins and calories. I am cutting but I have found that I am not eating nearly enough calories.

Meal plans are usually only for people that live in dorms, and most people move out of them after freshman year.Originally Posted by ven33
Buy stuff like oats, eggs, chicken, rice, beans, lentils, etc. $40 a week is definitely enough as long as you cook your own food and stick to the cheaper things.

LoL. You act like I don't know about college.Originally Posted by Viat
Anyways, most colleges still have off campus meal plans. I'd suggest what the others say with dollar store and frozen chicken breasts.

those meals plans are pretty over priced (here at least). anyway, just go to Walmart or Aldi. I usually spend less than 40 a week doing walmart, much less at Aldi.

I just re-read your post and realized that you said "do." For some reason when I first read it I saw "don't you have a meal plan."Originally Posted by ven33
