After taking stock, I’ve created my shopping list and a general plan.  I’ll initially stock up on chicken breasts, eggs, frozen vegetables, brown rice, oatmeal and low-carb tortillas.  I’ll also buy enough fresh vegetables to make a homemade salsa so as to be able to add flavor without all the extra sodium.    

Here is my starting shopping list:

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Eggs

Whey Protein Powder

Frozen Broccoli, Green Beans, Spinach and Brussels Sprouts

Fresh Tomato, Onion, Bell Pepper, Jalapeno

Brown Rice

Oatmeal

Low-Carb Tortillas

Keeping the shopping list short and starting with a limited number of foods will allow me to get the hang of doing the math every night (counting carbs and protein).  As I get the system down, I’ll start expanding the menu options I allow myself.
