I'm proud of myself!:)

Yay me!! lol I went shopping, and bought GOOD stuff! lol, apples, avocado's, broc, spinach, chicken, onions, bell peppers, whole wheat tortillas, greek yogurt, and my first protein powder! :)
I'm excited to try new healthy recipes this week, and get my son to eat it too:) Just had to share my little 'proud' moment, even though it may seem stupid or small to some, it's big to me! ;)

  • Way to go!! The best thing you can do for yourself is to give yourself the tools you need to succeed and weed out all the temptations. Great job!

    Sounds like a great trip! My boys have been eating what my wife and I are eating and for the most part they have liked everything. Maybe we parents ARE doing something right afterall!!

    That's great! I feel for you, I was like that before, whenever I do my grocery I check the calories, everything should be low fat, fat-free, less cal, lots of fruits and no processed foods. It feels good! Later I'll be doing my grocery, but now still browsing for healthy recipes I can make. Keep it up! :)

    That is so awesome! I always feel so great when I come home from the store with bags of GOOD food :) My 8 year old son is picky, but he's been adjusting to the new way of eating around here
