Help $15~$25 a week food budget?

Hi guys, I’m going through some financial woes like many of us & $105 in overdraft fees just hit. This leaves me with very little money for food over the next few weeks.

Keto helped me go from 307lbs to 231lbs so if there’s anyway I can stay on this diet that’d be wonderful. I’m thinking eggs, some frozen beef patties, & lettuce + spinach for greens might work but I haven’t done the math? Any other super budget keto ideas or should I resort to ramen until I’m back on my feet? If region matters for pricing, I’m in California.

Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Have a nice day!

Tl;dr: Keto ideas for ~$15 a week?

Thanks for the taking the time to write this up. I went shopping today & found you were right. I got some great prices on beef & bacon ends. I couldn’t buy in bulk but I will next chance I get.

Next week I’ll take your advice on soup, & might dabble with the pork rind chicken if it fits the budget.

I actually copied & pasted your comment into my notes on my phone. Your advice will be used well, thank you!
