We all get too busy and lazy to cook and eat at home everyday, but here are some reasons why we should try to prepare our own meals more often than picking something up elsewhere:
1. Cost: The average person will save about $75 per week just by preparing their own meals at home. Imagine what you could do with an extra $337 a month!
2. Hidden Calories: More often than not even the healthiest looking item on the menu is packing way too many calories for one meal.
3. Saturated Fat Overload: As someone who used to cook in a restaurant kitchen I can tell you, Chefs don't care how many calories each meal has, it is all about flavor. I worked in an Italian restaurant and there was not one dish that left the kitchen without mounds of butter in it, yes I said MOUNDS! Not only that, but when dining in a restaurant you are more likely to finish the entire meal, including the huge saturated fat steak you ordered.
