Crash diets are often lacking in nutrients and in restricting your calorie intake, you may well find that your body is being deprived of vital vitamins and minerals. Watch out for sugar. Where possible, swap sugary foods for fruit, raw vegetables and other snacks that won’t lead to weight gain. Stock up on whole grains.

Food/shopping. Fast food was rare. There wasn’t a restaurant on every corner and people didn’t eat out much. Most food at the grocery store came from the USA. The only discount store was the 5 and dime aka ‘the dime store’ It did not sell food (except 1 penny candies). Entertainment.

Planning was essential for meals because I knew that if I got tired and hungry it would be so easy to continue to snack or grab non-nutritious filler foods. I know, I know.

I don't go out for every meal if I can help it. I generally show up at my destination and take a trip to the store on the first day to shop for breakfast foods, because that's the easiest meal to make and the least exciting to me to eat out. You can also use it as a laundry bag if you don't have that much.
