If I'm prepping my meals, can hit macros perfectly for a dash under $120/week. Lots of eggs, some chicken, mince etc...

$150 - $250 single guy living solo - wide range.

I could go cheaper but I enjoy spending money on quality food. I do shop at Whole Foods and Safeway.  i use to be Whole Food shit talker, but I love going there.

id rather cut cost elsewhere than on food (this has nothing do with bbing gains) but being healthy #1.  you are what you eat

my electric bills are cheap, I don't buy electronics, streaming services, drink booze etc.

bulking for bbing can be cheap.
rice, eggs, oats, potatoes, chicken, peanut butter, coconut oil, bananas, ground chuck is all you need...

i miss bulking - god damn i could bulk - never again will I bulk

You can get most of that food for free. 


When I was in Sylva saving up to move to Greenville, I managed to do it at 15 dollars a week.

40 dollars a week

Ok, I know you're good with budgeting and frugal with your money and that always a good thing, but how the hell do survive on $40 a week for food?

Vince when you were in your worst shape and most over weight you were eating on $15 a week? How were you in such a caloric surplus that you gained all that weight?


Aslo i'm calling you on your Sam's club buying in bulk at $40 a week claim. Sam's bulk pricing is not a significant savings, especially compared to weekly ads grocery stores run, and you need a $100 a year membership. That's $8 a month that you haven't factored in.

Please post your receipts.

VVV also does mystery shopping to supplement his income.  This includes multiple Church's chicken meals comped per week.
