Week 1

So a week has gone by, and to my dismay, I have failed this week. I ate breakfast at home once this week, and I'm proud to say that It was a homemade fruit smoothy, but I know I can do better. My goal by the end of this semester, is to eat at home at least 4 days a week. This will include cooking my lunch at home and taking it with me to class and work. So why is this my goal? For the past two years or so, I have been eating fast food for every meal 95% of the time. The top 8 restaurants that I patronize in one month are as follows:

Quiznos
Subway
Del Taco
Wendy's
McDonalds
Jack in the Box
El Pollo Loco
KFC

So, I'm trying to kick this habit of mine because, truthfully, I am concerned about my health. I've gained about 5-7 pounds since 2005, which I consider alot of weight. I also feel unhealthy and tired alot of the time. So not only am I going to cook more meals at home, but I also want to cook more healthy meals.

My plan of action is to cook breakfast and dinner saturday and sunday as well as at least 3 weekdays. At the end of this semester, I would also like to have lost at least 5-10 pounds. Thanks for your input. Wish me luck!
