I included the above cartoon because that's basically how my day went. I have been sick all day and I am NOT feeling the fruits and veggies. All I am craving are carbs since they help with my dizziness. And today at the grocery store it was amazingly hard to not get donuts or a Snickers bar. MMMM Snickers...haha anyway, I ate pretty healthy but not at the top of my game. The only added sugar I had today was in a granola bar that i covered with all natural peanut butter. Even though I ate a decent amount of grains,at least they were good ones. Sugar-free & fat free granola, granola bar and a handful of Cheerios. As far as the fresh food goes, I have had a small salad, a few dried plums, and an orange. Later on we are going to make low sugar apple crumble for desert....still counts as fruit right? haha. I'm not going to be too hard on myself today since it is day one and i feel like crap. But I do think the sheer fact that the only processed food I have had today is a granola bar, is great in itself.
Today we did a big food shopping trip. Got a bunch of fresh produce that i am excited to nom. This week is going to be full of tasty dinners!!
As far as the second challenge goes, I feel like I took a bit of a cop-out today. Since I was not feel creative today, I decided that I would hold every door I go through and make sure to smile and say hello to nearly everyone I saw. I know a smile can go along way(especially on a Monday morning) so I hope i brightened someones day :) This week I also bought popcorn from some Boyscouts selling in front of Albertsons. Of course it was freakishly expensive(I'm pretty positive there will never be another circumstance where I will spend $20 on cheesy popcorn) but it was for a good cause the the kid was trying really hard to sell the merchandise. This is a case where you buy the popcorn knowing that you're not buying the popcorn for the sake of popcorn.
I hope you all had a fabulous Monday!!!
