Making the most out of the time I have

It's Friday night! The weekend is here and I'm ready to partay...unfortunately, I don't have any plans tonight, so it looks like I'll be spending this this evening hanging out at home.

Strangely enough, I have a crazy amount of energy tonight. Since I'm really not interested in doing homework or reading, I decided to do something wild and crrraaazy with my time! Now brace yourselves. Are you ready to hear what I did? Wait for it...Wait for it....

Tonight I decided...to...cook...not just one meal, but enough food for the majority of the weekend.

Pow there it is! Exciting right, LOL!

I decided to cook for a few reasons:

  1. I was hungry and didn't want to spend money on dinner tonight
  2. I had some produce that I needed to cook before it spoiled
  3. I want to make better food choices this weekend  
This week I felt the effects of not planning my meals in advance, and I want to make it easier on myself to make healthy food choices all weekend long. On weekends it's really difficult for me to stay on program. I'm not sure if the lack of a structured routine causes me to slip up or what. I do know that my goal this weekend is to stay within my Weight Watchers points and to track (journal) all of my meals  (I've gotten a little lax with the tracking, so I need to get back to it before I get out of the habit completely).

Well, I've got to check on my sweet potatoes (baked sweet potatoes (plain, not candied) are a wonderful snack or side dish.) Have a great night everyone, and I'll keep you posted on my progress!
