Should I Stock Up?

If I don't stock up there will be some real struggles off the bat. 1. Diet soda- totally addicted 2. Hot sauce- my attempt this year failed. I forgot to blend before straining I want to make sure I give myself a chance to thrive during this challenge. I definitely will miss my Friday post workout grocery shop where I buy a small bag of sesame sticks, sushi roll, mochi, and a soda so I don't have to cook.  But I think I can get over this if I have proper substitutions: maybe potato nachos, popcorn, and a soda or homemade pizza, popcorn, and a soda. Until it comes to the point that I don't need the soda anymore or I am out. I think if I bought a couple of boxes of soda and a couple of bottles of hot sauce I think I could get through the beginning successfully. What would be the two items you would want to stock up on?

Why?

Why no grocery store in 2020? 1. Have you seen all the food recalls lately? 2. I like supporting local economy. 3. I would rather do a year long challenge then make a New Year's resolution. Last year's challenge was a year of health. I went from being mostly sedentary and eating like crap, to losing 60 pounds and working out on average 5 times a week. 4. Can I do this living in a smallish town, in a trailer park without it costing a fortune? In full disclosure last year I ate fairly locally and seasonally. Using the grocery store for convenience foods because sometimes I just don't feel like cooking. I have a lot of connections that will make this a wee bit easier, such as CSA, milk, meat, grain etc
