My November Resolution

[zing_och]

Since I mentioned it yesterday: My November Resolution is: I'll eat food that I cooked. No take-out, no frozen dinners, and especially not raiding the fridge and wolfing done things that weren't meant to be wolfed down. Instead I'll cook, I'll take the stuff I cooked to the office (as well as snacks), and I'll eat at (mostly) fixed times every day.

We'll see how that goes. Today was very good, but since it's Sunday, it wasn't too difficult. Sunday is a cooking day anyway. But I'm good through tomorrow at least and have ideas for the rest of the week.

That is a great resolution! I might just follow your example -- I've definitely cut *way* back on take-out, but there's always more to shed.

Good luck! And keep us/me updated. <3

Thank you!

For me it's easier to stop stuff like getting take-out altogether than cutting back. So I hope this works!

Rock that resolution! :)

I don't eat processed food, and I feel great. (That said, take-out of the sushi or high-quality Thai variant I totally eat. But the Thai restaurant my workplace orders for us when we stay late doesn't use monosodium glutamate or additives, so I'm feeling it's alright.)

Cool! If I can keep it up, I'm pretty sure I'll feel better, too - my unhealthy habits are really bad for me.

The Chinese take-out place on the corner has a note about how they use the "traditional Asian MSG" in their food so I'll keep away from there. They leave it out if I ask, but this month is mainly about cooking myself.

*nod* I don't usually get sick, what with eating lots of fresh food, or at least food prepared in decent restaurants, and doing sports every 2-3 days.

Hilarious! Her fame has spread through the internets! ;)

Set mealtimes are really good for me, but unfortunately I find it hard to stick with them when living alone.

Good luck with your resolutions!

Thank you!

I'm living alone, too. At the moment I'm trying to make up a structure: There's a radio program I like at 6:30, so I head for the kitchen then. Stuff like that. It's very much a work in progress...
