wee 13: It's Just Not Happening

Week 13 was not a complete failure, but I was no where near my goal. I ate one meal at home. I made a turkery sandwich with tomatoes, green peppers and alvocado with chicken soup. It was delicious and it was definitely an easy meal to prepare. I also felt good about that meal because I felt like it was a healthier meal than I usually eat. I'm also trying new healthier food options, and alvocado is one of them.

Someone who has been very supportive of me in my behavior change is my mother. Even before I set this goal at the begining of the semester, my mom has always been encouraging me to eat healthy. She always says "Ky, have you been eating healthy? Do you have groceries in your house? What have you been eating?" And I reply no, no and fast food. Nevertheless, she always stays on top of me about my health, encouraging me to eat healthy and exercise; neither of those behaviors have been happening lately. Even though I have not been completely successful at reaching my goal, her support and encouragement is still helpful. Not just for reaching this minor goal, but also for larger life goals such education and a career. Support is always helpful and a necessity when an individual is pursuing important life changes.
