But for me, going super low carb is doing wonders for my illness, so eating mostly meat is not the extravagance it might seem, because I eat my slab of beef and I AM DONE, often for the rest of the day. I can have one expensive meal for the cost of three cheap ones.

For money, I'm even, and for health, I'm ahead.

My thoughts and experiences exactly. I try to find good quality protein on sale, and I'm eating 1 or 2 meals a day at the same price point or less. The meal(s) is satisfying, delicious, and done. For one who is keto adapted (fat burner), the quantity consumed decreases (generally) without intentionally doing so due to the satiating nature of this WOE. Your body is getting the nutrients it needs while consuming less over the course of a day.
