Need shopping list help!

  • This is the list I made for Phase 1. I eat most of my meals in my university's dining hall, but I want to make sure my fridge is well-stocked too for snacks and the occasional meal. Am I missing anything important? I don't want to buy nuts because I tend to binge on them, eek. By the way, I don't have access to a kitchen at school, just a microwave. Thanks for your help!

  • Sounds great to me~!

    Are you planning on eating any salads???
    Need any lettuce?

    And you might need to incorporate some veggies

    Does anyone else have any suggestions
    Hope this helps!
  • Hey, mompen! Did you see that I had mushrooms, scallions, green peppers, spinach, romaine, and celery on there? Do you think I should get any other veggies? All I can think of is broccoli, cauliflower, and cucumbers which I should probably add to my list. I plan eat beans in the dining hall since they're readily available there.
  • I try to use different types of lettuce for variety.
    Which I did overlook you had romaine on there

    I think you have a great list. And you will know after a couple days whether you need more veggies or if you are content

    Congrats on your decision to lose weight!

  • You could buy a lemon or a lime for a squeeze of that on your salad or tuna.
  • Blackberry, wish you'd do my shopping too! I know what you mean about nuts, I buy pistachios in the shell (not red) and you can have 30. It takes a good bit of time to shell one by one and eat 30 pistachios. Good luck!
