SIMPLE WAYS TO LOSE WEIGHT ON A BUDGET
Plan to Cook at home
Instead of buying costly prepared meals, which often tend to be high in calories, cook your own at home. Plan out our meals with high–fiber foods like beans and whole grains which will keep you full and are a cheaper, healthier alternative to rich proteins and more processed grains.
Eat less
Eating less leads to weight loss, and cost savings, especially if you cut down on the right things. Start by cutting your portions of spicy meat and poultry. Or swap out meat and poultry for cheaper vegetarian proteins likes beans, lentils, tofu, and eggs for some of your meals.
Double Up on Vegetables
Vegetables are great for weight loss, as well as all-around health. They are low in calories and high in water and fiber – two things that keep you feeling full. Save cash by shopping for those that are in season. Frozen vegetables can be a great bargain, with just as much nutrition as fresh, since they are picked and frozen at their peak ripeness.
Get Creative with your exercise options
You don’t need to shell out a monthly gym fee to get moving. Instead, find fun activities you enjoy for free. If you’re just getting started with a regular exercise routine, try your beginning with daily walks: start slowly and build uptime and speed.
Make friends with someone
One of the most powerful resources you have for helping you lose weight is your social network. Find a friend who is also trying to lose weight and agree to help each other say motivated. One study found that when friends participated in a group weight–loss program together, they lost more weight than people who did the same program on their own.
The phrase “shell out” is closest in meaning to _________.
A. become more interesting in something
B. pay money for something
C. peel something out
D. take someone out of a shell.

Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical information a doctor might give us? This fascinating information came to light as a result of a study carried out by Utrecht University. What is even more interesting is that almost half of what we think we remember is wrong.
Why do you think this is? Well, it’s not as complicated as you may think. You see, going to the doctor fills most people with anxiety, and when we are really nervous and stressed we are more likely to focus on the diagnosis rather than the treatment. Therefore, we know what is wrong with as but have no idea what to do about it.
Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always write down any important information. What would be even better is, if your doctor agreed, to record your consultation. This way, you can replay the advice at home, where you are more likely to absorb it. If you believe the situation is serious or you’re really worried, seek the help of a family member. Just ask them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be absolutely sure about what the doctor has told you and avoid falling into the same trap that most people do.
The author suggests recording the consultant in order to .
A. play it to your family members to get their opinions
B. refer to it later to better understand your condition
C. replay it to write down any important information
D. use it as evidence against your doctor if necessary
