Day 1:
Last week we decided we'd start a "30 day challenge". We're going to pick our meals and snacks a week in advance, and grocery shop every Sunday, rather than one big trip a month. We're buying only what's on the meal chart--nothing else.
Our biggest challenge has been convienience--we've been buying fast food for months now, because we're both too tired after work to 1)decide what to eat, and 2)make it. Now that we're buying all fresh ingredients and committing to a food schedule every week--we're hoping we'll eliminate the fast food etc.
We're half way through day 1, and I'm feeling really optimistic. I haven't swayed once (and even if I had..there's nothing bad in the house, so I'd have to go out to ear poorly anyway).
My mother let me borrow her "gazelle" fitness machine thing... I was on for about 15 mins today. Adam and I are going to add exercise in gradually and focus mainly on eating better--as that's the biggest challenge for us right now.
I'd better change my weight on here...it's been months...and I am heavier now... :(
