Matt's Diary

Well, good that your Easter was okay - but Matt... the visits to Wawa's and Macdonald's are steering you off into weight gain territory.
I've said it, Rob's said it, you know it. Seriously, can't you find a place to buy fresh fruit and veg, and stock up, and just not go there for ready-made food?
I've lived in a food desert, and will be again soon, and I know how really hard it can be, but... the possible future (weight gain, health impact, etc) is pretty grim. Let's try to avoid it?

Honestly I'm going to try to start eating more fruits and veggies. I think the last time I went shopping the pickings were kind of slim.

I had to go tot he store, so I decided to get some fruit and try these Home Chef meals Kroger is selling, sort of like a TV Dinner, but they are not frozen and they are prepared fresh every day. Also it appears like I got the unemployment situation straightened out since I got some UI money deposited into my account.

I did pretty good today, I had Wawa, but I didn't eat junk. Unfortunately my stomach was bothering me most of the day, I think one of the oranges I had the other day may have been moldy, the coffee prob. didn't help either.
 
Oh I got a photo of one of my stalker cats; Copycat (Or Toby) sleeping in a little cat house my neighbor put out!

:) And a tiny move downward on the scales, too, which is nice.

About that maybe-mouldy orange... :( I really sympathise, with food at the price it is, not wanting to "waste" it. But of course it's just as much a waste - or worse than a waste! - if it makes you sick
