Losing weight advice on budget

First off, I've been an athlete my entire life. Been a serious tennis player since I was about 8. Went to college on a full ride tennis scholarship, also ran cross country all through high school. So I know how to excersise both in and out of the gym properly. The problem is I have allways been in outstanding shape and never had to worry about weight loss, so I am learning here. I quit tennis out of a first rate case of burnt out, a term wich any of you hardcore competitive long term athletes know.

That was 4 years ago and I havent done a damn thing since. Now I'm not to overweight but far more than I would like to be; maybe 35lbs. Running daily isn't a problem now that my legs are back into the swing of things. Problem is I cannot get any weight to come off. The reason is my diet.

My question is this. How can a poor college student, who shoppes for a months worth of food at a time with his roomate eat healthy. With not enough money to eat fresh, and buying all frozen crap, and a roomate that prefers the least healthy food items possible, how can I afford to change my diet back to an incling of something that is respectable and effecient in my weight loss endeavors?

thx in advance
