Beach Body Bootcamp Shopping List

I have never specifically restricted my caloric intake, so this portion of the Beach Body Ready month will be very interestin.   I have never been such a poor eater but I have my moments of eating too many refined grains, sugars, and fats.  Post partum, I feel that my eating habits have not been very good so this guidance on meals and snacks might get me heading back in the right direction.  It will be interesting to get more of a sense of how many calories are in the food that I eat.

There are some substitutions that I might make in these recipes since I don't like black olives for example and I don't drink coffee so I won't be adding instant coffee to the recipe that calls for it.  I am also not into marshmallows so I won't be making the Indoor Raspberry S'more.  If you do like marshmallows, I don't know if this snack is such a good idea.  I mean it calls for 1 marshmallow and then you have the rest of the bag to tempt you.
