    When me and my partner weren’t doing well, I’d often drop into McDonalds and find loose receipts on the tables and stuff. If you did a short online survey you could get £1.99 Big Mac and Fries with each receipt , and I’d gather any £4 I could find and get her two Big Macs and medium fries. It was to keep her positive and keep her mind off how much we were struggling. Luckily now we have a nice flat and I have a nice job, but these videos do really help as well as the entertainment factor.
    Nice video Ed mate

    massive props for acc going through with this. Also the reason the coke zero felt like it filled a hole is because caffeine is a hunger suppressant, its the reason why so many people that drink black coffee or zero sugar energy drinks are so skinny.

    Any zero sugar drink isn't going to help your calories intake. What you could do is go to a cafe or supermarket cafe or even Greg's. Get some free sugar and pour it into the drink. Still free but more calories and better taste.

    Fun video, but at the same time it's pretty normal to fast for 2-3 days without eating anything at all. Honestly you get hungry at like 12-24 hours, but if you time your sleep right you can go to bed a little hungry and past the 24 hour mark you generally stop being as hungry, just a bit tired and lightheaded.

    I am 73 years old and have never had a single day in my life where I had no food available. Maybe sometimes it was cheap food, maybe leftovers, or maybe not a lot, like during my college days when I wasn't on campus, but some how I always had food. The most difficult time was one Summer I took a class and worked at a nursing home making maybe $2/hr and I couldn't afford meat, but I basically went vegetarian. I lost a lot of weight but I got through it. The only other similar time was another Summer Class where I was able to get one meal a day for 6 weeks but protein was available. I was 98 lbs by the end of Summer. When you were out foraging for blackberries I felt that.

    Was fun to watch this and know some freebies. Some tips if you do it again;
    1) do your research, there are plenty of rewards programs about.
    2)you could have easily survived 2 days through Virgin red. All you need to do is invite a friend and you would have enough points for 6 free pasties(Greggs) or other items from there.
    3) If it suits you, you could do a build up, take a month to build up points in these schemes and see how long you can go with the proceeds. I mean how many friends can you invite?😂

    What about looking at free food samples some supermarkets offer or food left at markets on the floor.
    Foraging can be a good source of free food when you know what you are doing.
    You could try a £1 a day challenge or couple of quid a day challenge on food. Lots of cheap pasta, veg, etc

  • @jeanproctor3663
    @jeanproctor3663 Год назад

    i used to work a job where, although we got a couple of meals during the day, they weren't wonderful quality, quite fatty and basically like bargain basement versions and me and many of my colleagues would find we actively craved fresh fruit and vegetables as the days went on. There was nothing better than going home and having loads of veg with a meal, then polishing it off with an apple, maybe some grapes and an orange. Basically, it's because your body begins to run low on some essential nutrients that you can only get in specific foods and being able to eat those foods means you a) fulfil the nutritional shortfall and b) satiate your hunger in a better adjusted way than just eating the rubbish you/we had been.
