After being down for what seemed like forever, I’ve decided to shake out of it and move on. The first step will be loving myself. No more negative talk of failing. NO MORE! I love me. I can do it. Things can be worse so enjoy your blessings.
Having said that, I’m on my 4th day of healthy eating. Still haven’t found the gym time yet but I’ve been so busy with movement and walking that I’m sure I’ve burned some calories somewhere.
I stopped at the grocery store yesterday for some much needed supplies. When I got home, I began the task of cleaning out the fridge. I got rid of expired cheeses and old salad dressings and marinades and replaced them with my new ones. I had three chicken breasts. I marinated one of them with garlic lemon marinade, another with honey garlic marinade and a third with regular bbq marinade. Each is in its own baggie waiting to be baked tonight. I will be slicing these up to be used in a salad for my lunches and dinners throughout the week.
I also marinated some beef stew chunks. This will be dinner tonight atop some egg noodles.
I purchase a rack of ribs. I will need to cut these tonight so I can boil them and, again, marinate them for tomorrow’s dinner. These will be cooked in the crock pot throughout the day tomorrow. Most likely, this will be served with a side of homemade roasted potato wedges.
While all this cleaning and prepping was going on, I was also preparing dinner. I made garlic lemon Tilapia, brown rice w/ mushrooms, celery, onion, and steamed cauliflower and broccoli. I have leftovers for lunch today.
I also managed to cut up the remainder of my celery and green onions and packaged them separately. This saves so much time for me. For future cooking, I can just reach and measure out what I need. I will try and find some time tonight to cut up the green, red, and yellow bell peppers. I will use these for snacks throughout the day along with the rest of the broccoli and cauliflower that I didn’t use for dinner.
Even typing all that out seems like a lot. 
Now that I have my eating back on track, I will have to get my gym time back on track. After all, can’t really have one without the other.
