During the passed 2 weeks, I’ve been very strict with my “diet” by mostly eating fruits and vegetables. I’ve also been reading all of the nutrition facts of food in stores and in the kitchen (I’m trying to avoid hfcs as much as possible). With information that I received from RuthG, I’ve started eating Post Shredded Wheat and Post Grape Nuts cereal because there’s hfcs in Special K. The Post cereals that I’m eating now also has a similar “challenge” as Special K (one of those lose 10 pounds 3 step plan things, but it may take longer than 2 weeks). Just thought that might interest some of you who are doing that Special K challenge, but do not want to consume hfcs anymore.
Anyways, the events that transpired today really made me just want to eat junk/comfort food when I got home. I even was tempted to eat meat, but I opted not to because of my “give up meat for June” goal. Instead, I went on my usual 5+ mile walk and that helped me take my mind off of things and now I’m thinking about what healthy meal I’d like to eat for dinner. It’s been very hard to adjust to this new way of eating…there are days when I feel like I’m going to fail on it, but I just try to keep thinking positively and hopefully I’ll keep on eating healthy.
