<prompt> Human: I live near San Francisco, CA. I am working hard to pay off student loan debt. If I limit myself to a 200 monthly food budget I will be able to finish paying my loans in 8months. I run 3xs a week and would like to continue to workout. I have never been good at budgeting when it comes to food. My previous food budget was around 150-190 week as I ate out for almost every meal. Please be patient with me. Is 200 a month enough to buy groceries to make healthy meals that are high in protein? I am worried that I will no longer be able to make post workout drinks or have a balanced diet. I dont mind cooking at home and look forward to making modest meals. Inexpensivetasty recipes are welcome! Thank you in advance and thank you for your patience.  <response>: For a single person? Absolutely.
