If a person purchased the above list of groceries, these are the approximate number of servings
provided from each major group of fruits, vegetables, carbohydrate (CHO), dairy, proteins and fats.
Fruit: 28/ a goal of 21 servings per week
Vegetables: 34/ a goal of 21 servings per week
CHO: 70/ a goal of 42 per week
Dairy: 128 oz/ 126 oz liquid milk to drink per week
Protein: 80/ of a goal of 42 oz a week
Fats: 96/ of 21 servings a week added fat in added butter/margarine
If a person strictly followed portion sizes, in this first week of grocery shopping we have accumulated 4 weeks worth of butter, 2-3/4 weeks of fruits and vegetables, 2-3/4 weeks of CHO and 2 week's meat that will be further extended in next week's groceries. Week by week we will increase our stores, eat nutritiously, and gain control of finances. :)
