Eating
 Food wise I have been horrible today after a late night last night I didn’t wake up until 10 am, so I skipped breakfast, had a small whey protein shake and Apex Crisp Bars, Box Of 12, Chocolate Peanut Butter, then I had to run to Costco after the gym and grabbed an all beef hotdog and a small diet coke for lunch.
But dinner tonight is turkey burgers, with corn on the cob and a side salad, so that shouldn’t be that bad. As far as food and eating right that is where I struggle my whole life I was raised on fast food and dine-in so I really don’t know how to eat healthy, I got on a nutrition plan and it tells me what every meal and snack should be for every day, but right now until I get paid again I can’t afford to go shopping and buy half the stuff on the menu, so any pointers her helpful tips any of you have please let me know.
