Michael and I want to eat healthier and drop a little
weight. He has bigger goals than I do. Right now, I’d like to lose about 5
pounds. I need to slim my waistline a little, and I’d like to be a few pounds
lighter than my pre-pregnancy weight before I get pregnant again. I don’t want
to gain on top of extra gain.
Today when I went grocery shopping, I bought vegetables, and
not just a potato. When I got home, I washed them all, sliced them up, put them
in little ziplock baggies, and put the baggies in a pink basket to set in my
frige. I even poured ranch in a little container so it’s ready for dipping. See,
I have to take every excuse away, and outsmart my lazy butt. I also wrote a
list of healthy snacks on a post-it and stuck it on my frige door. That way I’m
reminded of good snacks to eat during the day.
We’ll see if this helps with eating healthier.
I also did not buy any cookies, chocolate, or chips. It was
tempting, but I resisted. Then in the check-out aisle I spotted Trader Joe’s
caramel popcorn. It was a small bag. It was only $1.49. And it was surprisingly
low-fat, low-cal.
Hey, I have to have some reward for all this healthy eating!
