    Some of the same things are on mine. I love greek yogurt and eat almonds most days. I'm also making a dish from Cooking Light so I bought mustard greens, Gruyere cheese, whole wheat tortillas, and chicken... YUM! I also made cilantro lime rice from scratch. I bought lots of veggies for salads, fresh strawberries, and my splurge, admittedly, was almond croissants...have a great week!

    I did a quick shop at Trader Joe's yesterday and got:

    bananas
    apples
    strawberries
    frozen berry mix for smoothies
    honey
    raw agave (trying it out for the first time!)
    unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    nonfat plain greek yogurt w/fiber
    1% organic milk
    butter
    preservative-free prunes
    olive oil spray
    semi-sweet chocolate chips (baking and giving it away helps me relieve diet cravings- weird, I know)
    white whole wheat flour (see above)

    Organic Milk is always on my list too.
    I do like the 90-cal Fiber bars.
    Otherwise whole wheat bread and peanut butter are staples
    A variety of Kashi cereals as well.
    Bananas! I must remember to get more...
    Cucumbers are a favorite veggie I always put down too.
    Some kind of cheese.... a good quality cheese.
    Skinless, boneless chicken breasts are always in my fridge.

    I do the same baking thing, too...I bake for my coworkers and sneaky healthy treats for my kids.

    NOT weird! I love cooking and baking and eating better doesn't change that. :-D I just make the stuff I won't eat for my kids and husband (who has never had a weight problem). I totally get it.

    It's just weird for me because I never even baked prepared cookie dough before joining MFP- and now I spend so much time on baking blogs, haha! It's almost therapeutic to be around so much deliciousness and test my willpower. :) I definitely still enjoy some of what I bake- but I know when to say "stop," and that is the best part.
