All I can suggest, is stock up on Chicken Breast and lean ground beef when it's on sale!!
I will not pay over $1.69/lb. bnls sknls chix breast, and when it goes on sale for this price we usually buy 20 pounds, and that gets us by until the next sale. (THINK...........if you buy on a whim bnls sknls chix br.....at the $2.99 OR MORE/lb............or buy 20 pounds at the $1.69........HOW much you are saving.....yes, it's an initial cost, but sometimes you can't afford to NOT buy on the sale!!)
I also belong to grocery shopping/coupon boards that have helped me get through by people saying what good deals they get at certain grocery stores, like Super Valu, Winn Dixie, Bi-Lo, Publix, Kroger, and Super Walmarts to name a few. Even though this way of living is more expensive to our pocket book, we still get by with a much more reduced grocery bill than all my friends, who aren't even on this diet.
Good luck, and don't forget tuna in the can and getting "almost outdated" meats (just get them in your freezer the second you get home)
