Fast Food Freedom Day One

Since the economy has gotten so bad, I have come to a realization on just how much money our family has been spending eating out. The worst part is that its not on healthy food its on processed, greasy junk food and unfortunately we have come to rely on it. Starting today April 11th 2011 Joey and I have committed to challenge ourselves to eliminate fast food from our diet completely. For me this is a blessing because of my weight loss goals and for my boys it is prevention for obesity in their life as well. I know that this will be a hard thing for my family to do because of our co-dependence on fast food but its finally time that we make some changes and fast food is the first to go!

So day One went well, despite the wafting smells of fast food as I left the friggin gym tonight, instead our family walked to the car, drove home with screaming baby and all and I stepped into the kitchen, took a deep breath and made dinner. Success!
