Tomato

Tomatoes are one of my favorite snacks. I hate when Im busy and they go to waste :(

Spaghetti

Brandon made Spaghetti today. I was so shocked! I had no idea he cooked any 'real' food! Kayla heard about it and wanted some so I got to take a snapshot of it.

Cookies and milk are my new thing...virtually replacing my candy bars I used to eat nightly-now I have to work on not eating them so much!

Grocery Shopping

Today was grocery shopping day. I was very happy to see that meat was on a good sale today. Just between the steaks and pork chops I bought I saved $27!! Now my freezer is nice and full too which is a great feeling.

The grocery list... I dont mind grocery shopping its the making the list I hate. I never seem to know what I should buy, and then when Im home I always feel like there is nothing to eat. Tomorrow I plan to take care of that list :)

More Food

Ive had nothing but fast food for days, not good for my diet. So today Im back on track. I had chicken for lunch and salmon for dinner. And still no chocolate!

I think I need to do some research to see what it the most healthy fish I can eat, I just buy salmon cause I know I like it.

Wasteful!

Today I left the house for some much needed girl time with Maria. I LOVE Kayla but it was nice to have a conversation without being interrupted (plus I have her now anyway :) ). I was so in a hurry to leave that I left out the chicken I had taken out to defrost. What a bummer! I now wasted all that chicken! Now what am I going to eat for dinner?

Tonight I made dinner for my brother and I, salmon and corn for me; salmon, corn, bread, and salad for Brandon. After dinner Brandon was working more on my laptop (gotta love him!) and eating the M&Ms on the end table. Watching him eat them made me crave something sweet. And since I had just eaten I knew I really didnt need anything.

I got up and went looking through the cupboards for something I could eat. And the raisins were what I came up with. Though they arent necessarily my favorite snack they are sweet, and come in pre-portioned boxes which is an added plus. So while Brandon ate sweet sweet chocolate I ate raisins. Ive now made it through day 4 with no chocolate. Every day has gotten easier!

Today Kayla and I both ate healthy. For lunch we had chicken salad, and snack for her was an orange and a banana for me. Go Me! Second day of eating healthy and working out!

Day 1-no chocolate

The Yogurt Journey

Today I realized, that a large part of why Im hurting/restless/not sleeping probably has to do with the fact that Im not doing anything during the day. So today I decided to work out using my Wii Fit. Of course after working out I was hungry so I grabbed a yogurt. I sat down to eat it while surfing the web, about half way through it I realized that I needed to snap a picture for my 365 and so I set it down next to me on the couch until I was finished-all the while my stomach was growling.

I got up and took a picture on the counter, as soon as I was done taking the picture I grabbed the yogurt to finish eating it and it went flying across the counter and all over the floor! So much for that healthy idea! Silly me I just cleaned it up instead of taking a picture of the mess on the floor-which would have made a much more interesting shot! There's my OCD for you...cant focus until its cleaned up.

Now I have to figure out what to eat instead....

TGI Friday's (Leftovers)

It's February-and I decided that this month Im going to have a theme. My theme for February is "food". Im not going to make myself do food every single day if something else is better. But I wanna use this to show myself what Im eating everyday. Maybe this will encourage me to eat more of a variety too.

Today I had TGI Friday's with Hilda-Jack Daniel's Shrimp and Steak yum!

On a side note-the server was a girl (Crystal) that I remembered from HS. I SWEAR I cant go out in public with Hilda without seeing some one from HS...odd but true.

Food

Today's picture is of my empty plate. I finally got to eat (okay no excuse-I just didnt get around to it earlier) and so I practically licked my plate clean. I even when to the grocery store so now no more complaints of not having food to use as an excuse. I gotta work harder at eating more often. I tend to wait until Im starving before I eat at all and thats not healthy, of course.
