A Day in The Life
Thought I would share some of what I do and eat etc. My wife and I figured out about 6 years ago that buying meat in bulk was cheaper per pound and healthier that buying weekly grocery store meat. We buy a 1/4 steer at a cost of $4.50 per pound. That usually translates into about 200lbs or so. This gives us steak, chipped beef, roasts, hamburger and cubed beef and it is all grass fed, pastured beef. This usually lasts us about 6 - 9 months.
When we grocery shop, we look for other meats on discount such as chicken, pork or turkey. If we find it cheap, we buy it all. Then we take it home and freeze it for later use. We just got our first pig that was pastured and we paid about $4.25 per pound. Got pork chops, bacon, ham steaks, sausage all grass fed. We generally are only buying organic produce and cooking necessities when we shop. We get raw milk from a local store along with pastured eggs on a weekly basis. We have not bought meat from the grocery store for over a month. I look at what they re selling, and compared to mine it looks rather nasty! Pink steak and even pale pork. No thanks!
Our problem has always been working long hours and not feeling like cooking. That's when the quick, cheap meals come into play. This is what has caused both of our weight gains over the years. When we stick to our healthy foods, we lose weight. When we fade into the cheap stuff, we gain. The best advice I can give is to meal prep as much as you can. If you can remove most of the temptation to take the easy way out you will have a much better chance of success.
