New Day - BAH

I can not seem to get anything right lately. Dang it, man. Bad day again. Tired of being the only person to clean or cook (kids can't cook and their cleaning skills leave a lot to be desired, so it is all me.) so it leads me to eating out.

I have decided that the low carb and the low calorie thing failed me. However, I have not tried a low fat diet. So that is next. I actually think I can do low fat because when I shop I usually pick low fat stuff off the shelves. I also am not a big meat eater - usually chicken or lean beef. It will not take a lot to watch my fat intake as there are many low fat options for just about anything I could want.

The only issues I for see are my love of all things dairy. Now, low fat sour cream and milk are fine, but low fat cheese is just too expensive for me. I may buy one thing of cheese and make it last.

I am actually excited about a low fat diet because I think it is the diet for me. I do not have to stress about my pop drinking and naturally bring myself to lowering my intake instead of feeling like a loser with every can. I also can curb my bad fast food habit. I just need to head tot he store for more chicken breasts and some low fat milk and sour cream (and maybe that package of low fat cheese). This could work.

I am doing the detox on Saturday and Sunday is Mother's Day so I should not have to stress that day, so low fat diet starts Monday. I am looking forward to it. I like that if nothing else it is good for my heart and I am being so kind to my heart these days that I may be the only person in my family to avoid heart surgery, high blood pressure or other heart related ailments. I guess if I am still fat, at least I can be happy in knowing that my heart is good.

Oh, not listing the food I ate today was not by chance. You DO NOT want to know what I have eaten or drank today as it may make you gain weight just reading it.
