If you break down the amount of protein, carbs, and fats that you actually need during the week, it doesn't amount to much at all. 8oz of protein a day is 3.5lbs a week and that's one large turkey breast. 2000 cals from carbs a day is only a pound of pasta plus a couple servings of rice. For one week you could theoretically get away with 7lbs pasta, a roaster hen, and can of oats. Fill in the blanks with raw carrots, celery, bananas, apples, oranges, coupla heads of dark green lettuce, EVOO and good vinegar, and you're set. Shoot you don't even have to cook your veggies!
