Grocery Shopping

Had a big setback yesterday calorie-wise. I was good all day, then I went to dinner at a restaurant. I tried to order healthy, but I made the amatuer mistake of ordering a salad and not getting the dressing on the side. So I ended up at about 3000 calories. Yuck. I'm not beating myself up about it though...I can't change overnight. I will make mistakes. I just can't let them cause me to get depressed and make more on purpose.

Today I've been really good. I actually need to eat another 400 calories before bed to hit my target.

The major step today though was grocery shopping. I know a lot of people who go decide to eat healthy have to overcome all the junk they already own. I do not have this problem. I have been such a lazy person that I order out almost every day. The only food in my house before today was leftover take-out, a can of cranberries, and some pasta. I can easily avoid eating this without any guilt. The cranberries are from last year. I now have a fridge and pantry stocked with healthy stuff. Hopefully, the large stock will keep me going when I'm too lazy to want to eat right but too lazy to not eat what's avaliable. I bought a lot of stuff from recommendations on IateApie.com. I'm very excited.
