The "Who Wants to Eat? Not Me!!" Edition.....
My poor, pitiful knee on Friday morning before PT and the hellacious trip home via 2 plane flights. I still have no appetite.
This is day 127 of the "diet". Yay! If you can call what went on last week as a "diet".
And I want to know how a person who didn't eat ANYTHING for two days at all and very little for three days gains close to 10 lbs.??? Maybe all the drugs and not being on a water pill helped? Or my body actually hates me....
Onward to the meal planning!
This is what was planned for last week.......
1. Sunday--No Clue
2. Monday--No Clue
3. Tuesday--No Clue
4 Wednesday--No Clue
5. Thursday--No Clue
6. Friday--No Clue
7. Saturday--No Clue
And here's what actually happened........
1. Sunday--half a Bob Evans Pecan Chicken Salad
2. Monday--other half of BE Pecan Chicken Salad, Turkey, Broccoli and Carrot meal
3. Tuesday--Olive Hummus and Pita Chips
4 Wednesday--Nothing
5. Thursday--a banana, half a yogurt, a couple of Strawberries, some stir-fry veggies
6. Friday--Nothing
7. Saturday--can of Soup
No going back to old habits and eating patterns for me!
What got taken out of the freezer last week(at the hotel)...
* 4 chicken pot pies(Hubs ate all 4 over 2 days
* 1 bag of stir-fry veggies(Hubs ate most of this too)
* 1 Calzone(ditto Hubs)
What got put into the freezer last week(at the hotel)....
* 4 chicken pot pies
* 1 bag of stir-fry veggies
* 1 Calzone(hubs)
Last week we spent $0.00 on grocery shopping for October. We went to Aldi(across the street)on Sunday for provisions and Hubs went to Turkey Hill next door for drinks for me(including the Gatorade Zero I had to drink the morning of surgery). We used the prepaid travel stipend card to pay for all this so Zero OOP for us.
Grand Total shopping comes to $208.44 for October.
There are 17 shopping days left in October.
I've earned $117.32 on Ibotta in October.
I've earned $30.00 on Shopmium in October.
I've earned $5.75 on Alexa app in October.
I've earned $2.10 on Kroger Cash Back in October.
I've earned 10,141 points from food shopping on Fetch in October.
I've earned 3,144 points from food shopping on Shop Kick in October.
I've earned 1,985 SB from food shopping on Swag Bucks in October.
That is $155.17 in rebates(not counting the Shop Kick/Swag Bucks/Fetch)on $208.44 of grocery spending so in reality it's $53.27 in food spending after the 4 rebate apps I count.
My savings percentage for the last week was 100% and the monthly savings total for October comes in at 35.55% spent.
Leftovers going into this week...nothing.
Here is this week's "food plan".....
1. Sunday--1 yogurt, 1 Chicken Strip
2. Monday--1 yogurt, No Clue
3. Tuesday--No Clue
4 Wednesday--No Clue
5. Thursday--No Clue
6. Friday--No Clue
7. Saturday--No Clue
I have no "umph" to eat right now and I could care less about food. I just want good drugs. lol
I am NOT menu planning, period. I have earned the right not to in my mind at this point. Food will be from the freezer, catch as catch can, or something ordered out if I feel like eating(which I don't right now). I forced myself to eat chicken as protein is needed right now. The yogurt was to keep the drugs from upsetting my stomach and because....yogurt.
And in other news, important updates....
I know everyone was on pins and needles waiting to hear the thrilling news. lol (For those you who consider this TMI, I don't know why you are here!)
What is getting fixed and served at your house this week?
Was last week's plan successful, did you go off plan or did you not even plan what was going to be eaten last week?
Any deals on food at your stores this week?
I may post sporadically after this one or I might not, depending on drugs and stuff. I'll try to get a Frugal Friday post together but it certainly won't be as exciting as this update. *snort*
