Food Diary - Day 2

Let me say first of all...

I HATE DOING A FOOD JOURNAL!!!

I always have and it's one of the reasons I don't stick with it.

It's boring, same ol' same ol' and just one more thing to do each day.

BUT...

Doing one this week has kept me very mindful.  For example, yesterday was a Wednesdays and they are usually one of my toughest days.  I was busy and didn't really get a good lunch.  I had to run into the grocery store in the afternoon and was starving by the time I got out.  I had the kids with me and picked up snacks for them.  I could have easily had some of their snacks, but instead, I grabbed the container of raspberries instead.

Same thing today, I had to stop at the store and was getting hungry.  The old, not keeping track of things, Amy would have just picked up a chocolate bar for a quick pick me up.  But because I am posting my results for all the world to see (not just myself) I resisted temptation.

Onto my results for the day.
