How to Turn Your Food Situation Around

I come from a really frugal family so my life experiences are different but I grew up I love to cook so this is one that really I struggle with to understand. My parents were frugal by necessity not by choice and my mom would cook every night of the week we would go out to eat maybe once a month or something like that. As an adult who just spent better part of six or seven years eating out twice a day every day it was quite a like awakening in that senselike wow I can't cook I don't know how to take care of myself.
