I am hiking, tomorrow (Saturday) - great Fall colors in New England.
And probably another but shorter and less intense (solo) bicycle ride on Sunday between church and NASCAR race/Pathers Football game.
.
I will get prices from her and figure out the cost differential for the Bread/luncheon meat, and try to get it posted on Sunday afternoon with my wife's laptop while switching between Carolina Panthers and NASCAR Sprint CUP Chase race.

TWO WEEK approximate comparison: 
.
1 loaf ZoneFast 1-2-3 bread = $14.00 (autoship) + $11.++ shipping.
= $39.00 for two loaves of bread.
.
2 loaves Ezekiel bread = $8.60
30 Tortilla's = $9.30
4 lbs luncheon meat = $24.00
TOTAL = $42.00
.
Difference in current food:
0 loaves Ezekiel bread = minus $8.60
30 Tortilla's every 6 weeks = minus 2/3 = minus $6.20
1 or 2 lbs luncheon meat (using 1.5 lbs) = minus $15.00 
TOTAL = minus $30.00 

New Grocery expense = $42.00 minus $30.00 + $39.00 = $$51.00
.
OR about $9.00 more over two weeks.

John, I ordered a woman's custom pack, which allowed me to pick and choose just 1 serving of something if I wanted to try it. This was really a great way to sample a little bit of everything I was interested in. It was about $75 total.

Hey John,

Some thoughts on the costs of using 123 foods...

FWIW, I've been thinking about adding 123 bagels and breads to my rotation as a way to simplify my weekday breakfasts and lunches. And the way I've been figuring, it actually seems less expensive than what I'd normally spend for proteins and veggies for those meals.

If I find I tolerate the 123 foods, I'd do monthly standing shipments, so the shipping cost would be negligible spread across the month (assuming it's around $10-15 for the larger orders).

Here's what I'm thinking for a three block meal--each 123 bagel or two slices of bread costs about $2. Since I'm carb sensitive, all I'd have to add would be one block of protein and some fat.

A super economical protein option would be my favorite albacore tuna from Whole Foods. Costs $1.50 per can, with four blocks per can. So one can would cover 4 weekday lunches, then on the fifth day I could, say, have two (free range) hard boiled egg whites + lite mayo for a zoned egg salad sammie.

(For the non carb sensitive, adding half an apple to each meal would be a totally economical option).

So, an entire work week of lunches for near/under $15 (including aprox shipping + extra carbs if you need 'em). This is far less than what I currently spend. Then factor in less time in food prep, less kitchen clean up, less groceries to carry around (I don't have a car, so I literally carry my food home from the store) less planning...

For my particular situation, seems well worth it...though, having not run my own trial yet, remains to be seen if I'd like the 123 foods, stay satiated, etc.

I think you would have to weigh in on how much you'd spend on food additions, too.  The cost of the Zonefast diet is not just what you spend on 1-2-3 products.  And, if you are doing this for breakfast and lunch, you are going to need more than $15 worth of products per week. 

I haven't had time to do my own cost comparison, enjoying the fall weather here this weekend.  But, if I have time later, maybe I will try to do some comparisons.  I am thinking of setting it up as a 1-2-3 meal vs. an equivalent zone-block meal using classic zone foods.   I know that some may argue that they aren't necessarily equivalent, but guess I will have to do my best!

I broke down the cost for weekday lunches only in my post. $15, if I were to do it really cheaply, accounting for the "additions". You can see how I added it up if you read my post.

Courtney, I read your post, but I must have missed some of it... didn't see how you added it up.
