Before
even sitting down to make my shopping list, I knew there were a couple of quick
NOs:
•NO
fast food, NO meals out. Fortunately I like to cook.
•NO
Soda. Water is better for me anyway
I
was worried it might be hard to get decent fresh fruit and vegies at Aldi's,
but in fact I was able to find some nice broccoli and carrots, and a small bag
of apples. I usually try to have fruit at every meal, but will be limited to
"an apple a day..." this week.
Shopping
for one person, I knew I wouldn't be able to take advantage of buying in bulk.
For example, I planned to get some fresh ground beef to make chili, but Aldi's
only had 3# packs, so I ended up with a small pack of frozen meatballs.
Sunday
was our monthly havurah brunch. I took a sandwich, carrots and an apple. Hard
to say "no thanks" to the great offerings prepared/brought by the
others, but a good opportunity to talk about the Challenge.
I'm
eating pretty well so far, and should make it through the week, but saved some
money in case I get desperate for something extra by Saturday.
More later...
