Way More Work Then I Considered

I have come down with a small cold rendering me pretty much useless. Yesterday, I ordered delivery. I was going to today as well, but I stopped. I am only a little sick and I have a year of not ordering delivery so now is a good enough time to start getting use to things. So I picked up my CSA and made a skillet meal with cabbage, leeks, sausage, and brown rice. Paired this with some homemade pickles and an apple.

I am a little concerned that this year is going to be a little more difficult then I thought 🤣🤣🤣

  1. When you're sick you just do not want to do anything. I totally get it. :)

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

Week 2 in the Books

So I am still sick. Man this stuff is going around pretty bad. It has made it a little bit more challenging. Mainly because even though I had food prepared all I wanted was junk food. So what did I do? I ate all the convenience food and the prepared food got frozen. I couldn't imagine what it be like to have kids and take care of them too. Hats off to all the moms out there. Waste this week: I had to throw away some celery root and jam I had in the fridge. That was 11 oz of food. I also had to through away 5 sweet potato latkes. They tasted bad. So I don't think sweet potatoe latkes are the way to go. Spending: Nothing extra spent Weight: since I ate like it was my job and I was a total rockstar at it.... I am not weighing in this week. Sometimes ya just gotta be nice to yourself

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?
