Food is one reason I almost wish I wasn't into strength and conditioning fitness. We eat almost all our meals in, but it still isn't cheap. I wish sometimes my meals were as simple as a bow of oats, a PB sandwich for lunch, and some spaghetti w a bit of meat for dinner. Would be so cheap. Currently a typical day for me would be....
Breakfast-
coffee w almond milk and Splenda
Smoothie-almond milk, 1.5 scoop protein powder, spinach, blueberries and strawberries, almonds
Fish oil, multi, greens supp, apple cider vinegar
Lunch-
Diy Chipotle bowl- ample grilled chicken, corn, black beans, cilantro, cheese, Greek yogurt and guacamole, apple on the side
Pre workout- zip fizz or caffeine tab, Kirkland knock off quest bar
Dinner- some kind of meat- ground beef or turkey, shredded pork, shrimp, etc. Veggies or eggs and bacon
Before bed- frozen blueberries, almonds or pistachios, and some cheese.
Not cheap but I guess not having gone to the doctor for being sick in over 3 years while working with children as my job is pretty good for savings.
