Typically when I go to the store, I'll buy something like this:
Skinless chicken breasts
Fresh turkey from the deli
fresh cheese from the deli
no fat yogurt
whole wheat bread/wrap
spinach lettuce
milk
some type of fruit, either bananas/grapes/apples/oranges
tomato
92% lean ground beef
pork loins
etc.
I agree that I'll have to make slow small changes, and the eating late is one of the biggest problems I have. I think I eat late because when I eat 'well' I don't eat enough...and by the end of the night I'm starving.
I also think a huge problem is that I know what healthy foods to buy and eat, but I don't know any RECIPES. So it always feels like I'm eating protein...or carbs...or fat...rather than eating a healthy meal that makes me forget that it's healthy.
I've been posting around online and i've started talking to my family and friends about how important it is to me to eat healthy. I think having a network of people in my corner will help me succeed. I've always tried to do this alone and it always flops!
Thanks again guys!
