I went to Trader Joe's finally and did some grocery shopping. What I liked was that they sold a bunch of complete meals for relatively cheap; what I don't like is how bad some of those meals are (a Penne Arrabbiata and Pad Thai meal was not what I desired). But, they are affordable and there are many more options to try, so I will definitely be returning there for most of my groceries. It will be a Whole Foods trip for produce, and a Trader Joe's trip for everything else.
I slap myself on the wrist because I still haven't even attempted jogging. I have thought about it, but then snow falls and I get lazy. I'm not going to set a goal to do it by next week because I need to stop disappointing myself.
Friday I really broke the diet though by going to Fogo de Chao for a friend's birthday. Basically it's an all-you-can-eat buffet, but with really good steaks delivered straight to your table. I indulged on so much meat that night that I hardly had anything to eat the following Saturday (which was a poor choice when I had to go to work for six hours).
Mario and I have not talked lately, but I will rectify it. I'm sending him a text now. In evaluating things so far, it hasn't really worked, and it is all my fault (for what I haven't accomplished).
Tomorrow: I'm buying a scale. I need to just do it. Having that there, taking weekly weight measurements, will motivate me to start shedding the pounds even more. I also need to talk to Mario again and really get motivated for doing the right thing.
The MyPyramid plan website is somewhere I haven't gone since last month, so maybe its time I spent another week monitoring everything I eat. That would also be a good idea. I'l start tomorrow.
Alright, that wasn't a quick update. I lied. SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!
