You are so disciplined and organized. Your diet sounds very healthy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Stephenie. I try to be organized (not very disciplined, though!). As for my diet, I think if I posted all the snacks I eat, you will know it isn't all that healthy! Which is probably why I struggle with my weight.
DeleteI think as long as you remember your meal plan is yours and subject to whatever you decided to do , on or off plan, then it could be fun to continue. If it upsets you to go off plan then maybe it is not a good idea. I personally really don't care a whole lot about mine. It is usually just a Monday morning idea that uses what I have on hand,. I am fickle so I rarely stay on it and never without changing things up a lot.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anne. :) Having a plan with a specific meal listed by day wasn't as helpful to me as having a list of meal possibilities. It gives me more flexibility. So, I might continue to do that in July.
DeleteI've given up with making detailed meal plans. I'm currently checking once a week and listing fridge items and/or freezer meals that need to be used up. Apart from that I just decide on the day, eating what I fancy. With the less frequent shopping opportunities, I have to choose from whatever is in the house and surprisingly, it's making things much easier.
ReplyDeleteI tried the more detailed meal plans, but, that didn't work out too well for me, either. It was supposed to make it easier, but, I didn't always feel like cooking what was listed. The list of meal possibilities worked better; I think I will continue with it in July. I do want to try more bulk cooking and have ready prepared meals in the freezer, though, for those days when I just don't feel like cooking. :)
DeleteBless, I'm sure your snacking is disciplined as well, simply because you are unable to follow your cravings and pick up a little something, something on your way home. You can only snack on what is available in your house during this time. I am on keto as you know, and I consider myself disciplined. I have lots and lots of chocolate in my house (don't ask), but you won't find me eating it. HOWEVER, two nights ago I wanted something to snack on, so picture me sitting in front of the computer with a jar of almond butter in one hand and a spoon in the other. Ha,ha. But it worked. It filled the craving, and I didn't eat anything I wasn't supposed to.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan. Yes, you are right - I can only snack on what I have in the house, but, I've a lot of "bad for me" goodies stashed in the cupboard! :D Ooh, almond butter is one of my favorites! I don't have any, only peanut butter, which is good, too. And Nutella! My snacks are often crackers by themselves or with peanut butter, occasionally, cheese; homemade potato chips, nuts, sometimes candy. I like salty snacks, but, want sweet desserts. So far, however, I have avoided making cakes and cookies, although I made those zucchini muffins, earlier.
