My worst purchase:
Yes, I do feel a little ashamed, but I will get over it.
I also bought a bunch more 'convenience' food - junk that we normally don't eat, but since I have already felt somewhat lazy since the deployment started last week, I figure I better at least make sure my kids can eat SOMETHING when I don't feel like cooking. The boys love 'easy mac' so I picked up a case of that - even though it costs more for 18 individual servings than it costs for 15 family-size boxes. Bought some 'cup noodles' too....with zero nutritional value and a whole day's worth of fat per serving. But the boys can make those on their own, so as long as its not every day, I think I will get over that guilt.
Now I just have to remember to walk walk walk walk walk so I can burn off some of the extra red vines calories, and then rest as much as I can so I can continue to maintain my weight and enjoy being pregnant.
(putting the red vines down now.....)
believe me, I would have gotten something much worse for me. Like a big ol' pail of reeses pieces..or lays potato chips. Oh who am I kidding..I would have bought McDonalds out of all of their french friends!
ReplyDeleteIt's all good. Everyone has their junk food days. Like you said walk : )
ReplyDeleteCome on, redvines are like nonfat. Right??
ReplyDeleteha ha ha YES Alcia, non fat! ALso only 140 calories for 5 vines, and I am usually OK with 2 or 3 of them...so WHY did I have to buy this jumbo tub of red vines? LOL And mine is acutally BIGGER than the one in the picture...it's 5.5 lbs. YIKES. But I did save a tone of money by buying bulk, right :)
