Hi you guys! How's the post-new year work week going? It always feels a bit lully to me right after the holidays but I appreciate being able to slow down a bit. Over the past few years, I've started to look at January and the winter months as a season of rest. We're just easing our way into things. I'm trying to take that approach with my goals/resolutions, too, however I also feel like I need to get my life back in order lol. After eating way too many holiday treats, I'm dipping my toes back in to no longer eating like a psycho, haha. Publix has also had some fire BOGOs last week + this week so I have some good haul-worthy finds to share with you.
Whenever I'm trying to cut back/eat healthier, my two main goals are usually to just up my protein and eat less junk, lol. AFTER THE HOLIDAYS, that really hasn't been too difficult. Other than my morning coffee, I really haven't been eating much sugar or snacks. We'll see how long we can ride that one... I get in trouble every year because my birthday is at the end of the month, then Valentine's Day, etc. Ya girl never misses out on a special occasion/holiday treat!
This haul is a mix of both last week/this week's BOGO and a few things from Kroger. I appreciate Publix including a lot of healthier items + some of my faves in the BOGOs like the Hero products, Yasso Bars, Purely Elizabeth, etc. Too many great things to pass up on! I was also so excited to finally grab the Puravida frozen veggies this week. Every time they're on BOGO they sell out immediately- I was surprised to see my store had them.
I was also curious about these Soules Kitchen Steak Strips. I'm always a little leery with frozen meat so we'll see how they are but if they're yummy, I'll be stoked. I feel like half of the battle with healthy eating for me is the prep so quick + easy things makes it a lot more manageable. Most everything else are my weekly staples- the only two wild cards are really feta cheese and some juice shots, lol. PS-- who knew feta cheese was a little superstar?? I bought a fat-free version which has 6g of protein and is only 35 calories per tablespoon! Will definitely be experimenting with her on my veggies!
