Day 21-23 VLCD

Well where to begin... grocery shopping and of course that means Costco! Heads of lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, asparagus, tomato, celery, garlic, onion, and of course a box of oranges! I love the smell of the food court, all those tempting aroma's and there I am smiling, just waiting to get into the car and rip into a big fat juicy head of lettuce! I actually snack on it the whole way home smiling to myself! On these shopping trip days I am in for one or two days of cooking to follow... I buy the chicken by the 20 bag so it's a lot of cutting and weighing, marinating and wrapping for the future. Even if you're cooking for one it's a great idea to plan meals in advance, to always have a back up and allow a full day to the cleaning, prepping, cooking and again... cleaning that goes into a week's worth of meals. There have been nights that I get home and all I can do is grab handful's of lettuce, top with cottage cheese and strawberries, swirl and enjoy! I use the egg n cottage cheese days as 'emergency didn't plan' days. Ok, nice break, almost caught up, more tomorrow! Happy releases and sweet dreams...
