I logged 19 supermarket trips and my basket got heavier

I started entering every supermarket trip into the same sheet as my weight and steps. Not because a store is magic, just because I wanted a neutral variable. Across the last 19 trips (six weeks, one regular chain, no bulk warehouse), my average checkout has gone from $84 to $67. The odd part: the basket weighs more. More plain yogurt, frozen vegetables, eggs, chicken thighs. Fewer grab-and-go bars and chips. Protein per dollar is up from 9g to 14g. Produce pounds are up 31%. My appetite isn’t gone; it just doesn’t shout in aisle 7 anymore. I still buy one thing that makes no nutritional sense and log it anyway. Anyone else track grocery totals rather than macros? Curious whether your cart changed before the scale did.
