sabrinamariStarted this experiment February 20th, with 100 home-made frozen burritos and subdivided/marinated mega-packs of chicken breast, salmon and tilapia as well as 2 bags of shrimp.
Almost 2 months later:
* Down to 25 burritos, 2 (individual, dinner-sized) packages of chicken, 3 of salmon and 1 bag of shrimp
* Saved significantly on groceries: somewhere around $600/up (bought no lunches, ate out significantly less, dropped grocery purchases dramatically)
* Fitness level has increased significantly, partly because eating habits have improved tremendously
* Shopping trips cut by about a third
* Meal planning and cooking is easier, dinner clean up is about the same
Still think its worth the effort.
