Why is diet shopping so bloody expensive grrr.

Ok I'm nosy .... How long is this gonna last? How many people are you feeding? and what's quorn?

Quorn is a vegetarian substitute its made out of mushroom protein stuff (doesn't sound good but tastes nice). Just me and whoever visits me
the staple stuff like rice and wheat and the quorn stuff cos it's all freezer stuff will last about a month. The soup will last about a fortnight I'll get bored with it after that anyway and want to try something new. Drinks will last about a fortnight too but I'll prob need more milk. Fruit and veg about a week and a half would buy more but if I do I'll only eat it so the idea is to just have what I need.

The snacks will last a couple of weeks for the choccie stuff if I bought more i'd eat it all. And I'll just get more fruit at work at lunch time instead of buying chocolate. Or thats the plan.

I normally do my shopping every 2 weeks and then just get odd bits in between.

You vegetarian? What's your plan?
I am nosy aren't I?

Yup I'm veggie. I'm sticking sort of loosely to slimming world I keep to the max end of the points and tend to lose 3lbs or so a week because I walk so much, I walk at least an hour and a half a day and do 2 gym classes a week. I did it like that before and did really well but I've been working stupid hours and its ruined my eating habits. I was at uni all day and then 3 days a week going to work straight from uni til almost midnight so ended up eating loads of junk food again takeaways for dinner and grabbing chocolate on my breaks at work and the weight has gone back on and xmas hasn't helped oops.

So new years resolutions and all that are to control the eating. Cut back on the alcohol and be in control of what I eat.
