i kind of made my goal today
i had 1 tablespoon of parmesan cheese
on my salad
it is processed food but i really wanted to not
eat something like a canned food
so maybe i met my goal due to
no canned or boxed or that sort
of foods?
tomorrow my goal will be
to eat 4 cups of vegetables
i think with the daily goals
my bigger goals will actually show
themselves
for example an ultimate goal of less or no
processed foods on most days
or vegetables every day
but im not ready to make them long term yet
its alot to look at it that way

Oh, good for you, with the vegetables! What do you like? Cauliflower is pretty good - or there's good old broccoli! Or green beans, I guess... or... well, I'll wait to hear what it was that you chose!

i made the 4 cup goal
2 cups were from family leftovers
and were red peppers orange peppers onions broccoli fried in something sweet (idk what)
my 2 cups were a frozen mix of
yellow carrots orange carrots red peppers green snow peas and i added 2 onions
and they were fried in olive oil with a dash of salt - the pink salt-
then when they were done i threw a sprinkle of parmesan cheese on them
wow that was so many veggies

Good for you, veggies are great food!
Another good for you, keeping up with the exercise thing.
You are doing well my friend, keep it up!
I agree, and a lot of the "processed cheese" can't legally even be called cheese, its "cheese food product" whatever that is. I have found that eating a small amount of a high quality good tasting cheese can go as far as a whole lot of the generic yellow or white cheese we have so much of in our stores. It does cost a lot more per pound, but I just eat a few bites, no more than an ounce at at time, so it doesn't cost any more per meal.

and im facing 1 time a week
starting this week of shopping
idk what to do
i cant have that amount of food here
my nice person family cant keep some
for me because they live with the bad
family person
who is also a hoarder so i cant really ask the nice person to
keep my stuff there when she has hardly anywhere for her own
do i have to just eat off my safe foods list?
its vegetables (only) which i havent found a way of to make
taste good
and im not sure i can live off just vegetables nor do i want to
or do i buy the normal weeks worth and
just eat for a few days til its gone?
its so embarassing admitting this cause i feel like such a pig
so tomorrows goal id like to try a 20
minute leslie walk i found on utube

Hey, that's great! Well done!
And please don't beat yourself up or call yourself hard names because you have a problem with food and food storage - look at how hard you're working to find the solutions! As many people here will tell you much better than I can, an important part of this healthy living endeavour is to be kind to ourselves. Cate has started a whole thread for that, here:
https://weight-loss.fitness.com/threads/be-kind-to-yourself-every-day-starting-now.113077/
As for liking vegetables - that's a whole other topic - we might need to put out a call for great vegetable ideas!
