A Good Day
Today was good. We were successful. Shopping and prepping food. Eating clean takes so much more…..time? Nah, it isn’t time, but effort…Yep effort and a ton of it. What am I going to eat every 3 hours? Will I get bored with the foods I have chosen? Protein and veggies at each meal can take planning.
In my previous life I would simply drive through some fast food joint and pickup enough junk to stay full. The funny thing was I never seemed to get full when I ate junk. Now, well now I almost dread the next three hours. I don’t dread eating because of the taste, but I am simply full. What a great way to live.
My energy level is better. My skin is better. My blood glucose is better controlled. All this at the price of being wiped out from a hard day’s work. Shopping at Costco during the Sunday madhouse is not for the faint of heart. The only thing Americans like more than junk food in bulk is free samples of that junk food. But I survived.
We emptied the car and put frozen goods in the freezer and then back out to the local grocery store and a Wal-mart. Once we got home from those stores we put the goods away, prepped the produce, weighed and bagged the meat, and finally sat down. All this after a good hour of cardio with half of that being HIIT.
It was a good day. Thank you God.
