Weekly Grocery Haul | Paleo + 80 Day Obsession

April 18, 2018 Leave a Comment

I don’t know about you, but I am always intrigued when people do a grocery haul on Instastories and on their blogs. I guess I’m a bit nosy in that I like seeing what other people are eating! I thought it might be fun to do a little post sharing this week’s grocery haul, since I’m starting a new workout program (80 Day Obsession for you Beachbody fans!) and I’m planning to follow the meal plan as much as possible while maintaining my Paleo/Whole30 lifestyle. The biggest change in my diet will be the need to incorporate snacking (which is similar to how I used to eat before Whole30-ing) and pre-workout meals, but the actual foods that I’m eating will pretty much remain the same (still no dairy, no simple carbs, etc.) – except I added more fruits and veggies for snacking this week!

Weekly Grocery Haul - Paleo and 80-Day Obsession

As usual, I ordered most of our groceries from Walmart and picked them up over the weekend, but I also hit Sprouts afterward since their produce is so good and they have great sales. Some weeks, like this week, we also had to stop by Kroger and Target in order to snag everything for the week. It can be time-consuming, but fortunately ordering the bulk of our groceries from Walmart means we can shorten our other stops.

Weekly Grocery Haul - PaleoWe definitely bought more produce this week than usual and we rarely buy pork or seafood, so those were extra expenses for the week. In a normal week, though, I expect to spend $90-100 on food, not including our monthly Costco visit (and of course some things go farther than just a week!).

How does your grocery bill stack up? I always thought we spent way too much on food, but I’ve seen lots of discussion lately on grocery spending and I feel like we’re on the lower end of what some people spend each month!

Also, I’ve tried Aldi several times but to be honest, I haven’t found it to be much cheaper than Walmart – so not worth the extra stop in my opinion. We don’t have a Trader Joes here YET, but they are building one now – so I will for sure be shopping there some when it opens!

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
