COSTCO!!!!

Happy Monday folks! Thanks for reading… today especially all of you made me extra happy :)

To fuel for our big day of wholesale I had the standard oats: IMG_5179

WE CHOSE COSTCO!! Honestly, your comments on my Costco v. Sam’s post convinced us right away. We didn’t even check out the competition!

The customers waiting for it to open were too funny: about 20 people armed with carts and serious faces… they were ready to shop!

Inside we were like little kids. Everything was HUGE and most of it was so cheap!! We wanted to buy everything but our wallets told us to slow down a bit. Luckily I get to go back another week and get even more!!

See that huge spinach? Although not organic, it was $4.99!!!

I was really impressed by the amount of organic products. From produce to chips to meats and cheeses, there were some great, cost-effective options. If there was an organic option, we bought it.

Day 1 at Coscto cost us $136- which I think is great for everything we got!!

Much of this is for David… see if you can pick out what belongs to who :)

David also got his first taste or organic meat after seeing Food, Inc. I was so proud!  (that was already in the fridge)

David likes his Eggos!

This organic edamame? $4.99!

By the time we could eat lunch we were STARVING so the meal was quick and simple.

I enjoyed a green monster with blueberries, soymilk, soy protein, Amazing Grass, spinach, flax and ice. I didn’t have any ripe bananas :(

Along with the smoothie: endamame and several pieces of fresh garlic bread topped with Smart Balance. It was the most delicious carb overload.

I spent the afternoon putting away the last few boxes and studying my NASM materials. I ran out of time to run so I’m calling today an off day.

Dinner was simple, too. A salad with endamame, corn, peas, chickpeas, blueberries, shredded carrots and a ginger dressing. And hot sauce! ;)

With more bread…Just look at that!!!

This girl is in carb overload. I can’t wait for a fresh day tomorrow filled with less bread and more exercise!

 

Good night!
