I think we're probably buy about 15lbs but some of that is bones. Two chickens (so 8lbs right there), lamb chops (3lbs), shrimp, ground beef (3lbs) and some fish.

Zero! DH is vegetarian and DS will never touch meat so we just eat veggie at home. When we go out I might have the occasional meat dish.

I never thought of it in weight before ... this past week, we probably had 7-8 lbs at least. We're trying to cut down, looks like I need to put in more effort

I just added it up after grocery shopping yesterday and we bought 11 pounds! DH only buys bone in meat when given a choice though. We bought a large roast, a whole chicken, sausage and ground beef. That will get us through 7 days of dinners and leftovers for lunch the next day for the 3 of us.

For us.... typically around 6-9 lbs? We usually only cook 5-6 days a week. There are 3 of us (2 adults and a five year old), and we typically go through around 1-2 lbs of meat a day (both DH and I also bring lunch from what we had for dinner the previous night). But then you also have to count the bones and shells on chicken, shrimp and such, and the fat we trimmed from beef and pork.
But we also eat very little carb. Mostly veggie + meat and a tiny bit of carb.
On Sunday we bought 3 lbs of beef round roast, 1.5 lbs of mahi mahi (both of these are on sale), and 8 pieces of chicken thighs which is maybe 3 lbs. I think we are going out to eat on Tuesday for DS's birthday but that would be 7.5 lbs of meat for grocery for around 4+ days. But there was 0.5+ lb of fat I trimmed out on the beef round roast, and a ton of bones in the chicken thighs.
