Four Ways to Save Your Life
4 Simple Ways to Save Time and Money
We understand. Good health isn’t free. If you’re wondering where you’ll find the money to invest in yourself, in healthful food, essential resources like health coaches, and all the other resources that make lifelong wellbeing possible, consider these four possibilities:
1. Skip the coffee shop on the way to work.
If you buy coffee by the cup, add about $65/month, or nearly $800/year, to your expenses. If you must drink it, grab a cup of decaf before you leave; or better yet, save the calories, the headaches, and the frustration of messed-up orders, and invest in a new outfit or the latest mobile phone instea
2. Dine out less often or eat half of a typical portion.
The typical American spends about $250/month eating full-size meals at restaurants, totaling about $3,000/year.
Splitting a meal or taking home leftovers could save you about $1500 – and help you maintain your current weight instead of gaining. That’s a win!
3. Cut or eliminate alcohol from your diet.
According to Gallup data, two-thirds of Americans have at least one drink a day.
Beer, the most popular, averages $3.75/pint, or about $1350/year. Save the calories and the money, and you’d have enough for an entire year’s worth of auto insurance in many states! Or enough to do the Well Mind ~ Well Body program.
4. Simplify your food shopping.
The cost of food is on the rise. You can save a lot of money if you planned your meals for the week. Our nutrition application helps you plan portion-controlled healthy meals and gives you a shopping list of all the foods you will need to make those meals. This can save both time and money.
Just think – if you changed just a couple of these habits, you’d definitely be healthier – and you could start paying off your mortgage early, treat your family to a vacation, or reward yourself for new, healthier habits.
