Grocery trip

We went to Safeway for dinner supplies (smokies and peogies… Not the best choices) but I also bought breakfast stuff. Below is a list.

  • milk (for my cheerios)
  • yogurt (for my granola)
  • eggs
  • tomatoes (to slice with eggs)
  • oranges (again, to slice with eggs)
  • grapes (snacks or with eggs)

I think that’s it. I’m trying to just make better choices and while breakfast has always been an easier meal for me, I’m more inclined to have a good lunch if I eat a good breakfast. Dinner is the hardest because the boyfriend doesn’t really love the idea of all the healthy foods (even though he enjoys them more than I do on a whole) and our portions are way out of whack since we’re way tired after our very physical jobs.

Long story short, I’m trying. That’s all I can do. :)

Mid month weigh in

1st weight: 238.4
16th weigh: 235.7
Change: -2.7

I’m pleased with that, especially since I forgot to weigh on the 15th like I planned to AND I hopped on the scale after eating breakfast. So, yep. Good times. I think I’m going to do alright.

"Picture yourself when you were five. In fact, dig out a photo of little you at that time and tape it to your mirror. How would you treat her, love her, feed her? How would you nurture her if you were the mother of little you? I bet you would protect her fiercely while giving her space to spread her itty-bitty wings. She’d get naps, healthy food, imagination time, and adventures into the wild. If playground bullies hurt her feelings, you’d hug her tears away and give her perspective. When tantrums or meltdowns turned her into a poltergeist, you’d demand a loving time-out in the naughty chair. From this day forward I want you to extend that same compassion to your adult self."

Totally red faced and sweaty. Kinda looks like I was crying… I wasn’t. Just totally exhausted. No, I wasn’t working out. I’m just working. It’s hot and I’ve been running around all day up and down stairs, lifting these heavy sonuvabitch rolls that are seriously so heavy. Do I have muscles yet?
