Some thoughts

Today I worked on homework..
I’m trying to make a list of food I’m going to get.
I’m bringing some pasta boxes not for me but for when my boyfriend comes over (it’s not “tempting” for me to have those.. it would be tempting for me to have sweets or peanut butter or bagels but nothing boxed really).
I’m not sure if he’s coming over next time or if I’m going up, but either way, it will only be for a weekend so I’m not worried about cheating. Plus, I’m going to also get a bag of rice for him, so that he can have veggies, rice, and I’ll pick up some chicken so he can eat that (since he is also trying to eat healthier) and that way I can just continue with my diet without feeling like I’m missing out or whatever.
He liked a few of the milk day recipes I tried, so I’m going to try and make something from that when he’s over so we can both enjoy it. If I can get to a health store, I can buy the xanthan gum and I’ve gotta find rock salt too for making ice cream.. I don’t plan on using the ice cream maker this week but I want to get the ingredients this week so I can try it next week..

I’ve got a whole list of stuff I wanna get. I basically need to get some basics and stock up on others.. I’m going to get some fruit for the week, but I’m going to stock up on syrups and frozen veggies for at least a couple weeks til I go shopping again.

I’m excited to start again.. my mom’s been noticing I gained a little weight.. then again she always notices rawr. But most of what I gained was in the first week I cheated and my stomach is just purely bloated from all the eating, so I’m wondering if some of what I feel is just water retention? After all, I’ve been drinking less water and eating a lot of foods that my body wasn’t used to. Whatever, it doesn’t matter because I’ll lose it this week. I’m actually really excited to go food-shopping.. lol. I’ve heard a lot about Trader  Joe’s so I’m excited to shop somewhere that sells healthy food but  at good prices. I guess I’ll have to buy the walden farms syrups elsewhere, maybe this wednesday when the shuttle bus at college goes to shoprite.. Apparently trader joe’s doesn’t really care well-known brands but that is why its cheaper..

Anyway, I’ll update tomorrow on how the day went.
