Healthy Notes to Self

Copy Cat Chipotle

I hate to shop

don't like cooking or doing the dishes

but I do love to eat

over the past so many years it's mostly been fast food

or some sort of take out

eating in the cafeteria at work

always sweets 

now that I have the time

that has to change

today is day 2 of low carb eating

not no carb

just eliminating added sugar

using fruit as my sweets

I've committed myself to 8 weeks 

then will evaluate my progress 

first thing I did the other day was a big grocery shop

my cupboards were bare

now they are not full

but full enough of healthy foods

to keep my blood sugar in line

the fridge is even better

fruit and veggies I will eat

chicken breasts galore, packed in the freezer for easy use

a little beef, a little Canadian bacon

will have to go back for ingredients for  

the chipotle copy cat recipes 

so much less sodium then from the restaurant

hard to read, sorry it won't enlarge more 

basically going with berries and apples fresh

others when in season

I haven't taken care of myself in so long

this is a good start

 

Puttering Around

  

usually not even 40% completed...

I've been puttering around the house

after doing a major "healthy food only" grocery shop

 then a few doughnuts at the Amish Market

so...

I figured my blood sugar would go too high

after 3 huge doughnuts

gave myself a fast acting insulin injection

without paying attention

I cranked it up to the level of my slow acting insulin 

so...

now I'm staying in the house

checking my blood sugar frequently

what a dufus!

 really in the mood to do some punch needle

maybe being forced to stay inside

will help me finally find it

  

its' not like I don't have a million other things to do here
