Going to check in here every day this week if I didn’t eat fast food or not. This is a period of exciting life changes so I have a lot of grace for mistakes butand I owe it to myself to have good nutritious food to fuel those changes.

Hoping someone will be willing to be pinged everyday this week so I can check in!

    So I already used my one time yesterday but I feel sort of valid. My friend had no plan to move and his lease was up so instead of having the slow day I had planned, I wound up moving stuff into a storage unit for six hours. The peanut butter sandwich I scarfed down wasn’t enough food and I wound up getting a hamburger…

    Today is off to a much better start tho! I had some egg tacos and I’m going to a potluck around dinner time so no real opportunities for deviltry lol. Also I am going to prepack my lunch for work tomorrow so I don’t get tempted. Although I am starting a new job and can come home at lunch time…

      I definetly can’t blame you for not cooking when you unexpectedly had to spend the day helping someone move.

      Pre packing lunches is definetly the move, but I also would keep shelf stable “emergency food” at work or in my car. Stuff like higher quality instant noodles and the microwave pouches of Indian food aren’t amazing for you but are better than fast food.

      Keep up the good work and good luck with the new job! Being able to go home for lunch is amazing.

        Thanks! I definitely want to keep a store of food at my job. My only concern is its always mice in these buildings in my city, but I can just get a plastic tote to keep it in lol.

      I’m usually a pretty good cook, just been in between jobs the last two weeks and I have zero executive functioning without external structure.
