My pantry currently looks like a 1st grader grocery shopped for me ⁣😂🧇🧃🥜🍪🥫⁣


⁣⁣
My shelves are full of fruit by the foot (iykyk), cinnamon toast crunch, hawiian sweet rolls and protein bars LOL ⁣👅⁣
⁣⁣
When we hit Kroger up last week, a lot of our go-to items were sold out. Like my high fiber tortillas...WHAT. THE. HECK. Houston, we’re going to have a serious issue if you start messing with my digestion.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
WHO: “wash your hands, social distancing”⁣⁣
Us: *BUY EVERYTHING* (especially pizza rolls, meat and TP lol) ⁣ 🧻 ⁣
⁣⁣
Can anyone relate to having the most random food in your house right now? 😂🙋🏼‍♀️ If yes, let me know what the weirdest thing you have on your shelves is! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Past me would have thought that not having my usual foods on hand would mean an excuse to go haywire on my diet for the time being, to pick up this healthy lifestyle again when it was easier. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
NOT ANYMORE SISTER! With tracking macros, as long as I have a carb, fat and protein source? I’M GUCCI. Goals? Consider them hit ✔️⁣
⁣⁣
✖️Going out to eat with friends? No sweat.⁣⁣
✖️Date night at the movies? Yessir!⁣⁣
✖️Foods you usually buy flew off the shelves? It’s fineeee⁣
⁣⁣
If I was on a meal plan, or a “DO NOT EAT THESE FOODS” program, I probably would’ve panicked if I couldn’t get what I needed this past week. Then have to choose to go to different stores to find what I needed or be forced to “fall off” my program. PSA: that’s not sustainable🤷🏼‍♀️⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This is a prime example of WHY I’m all for that flexible dieting lifestyle. It’s a fuel focused but eat-whatever-you-want, one-day-at-a-time plan of action. ⁣🤘🏼⁣
⁣⁣
80-90% fuel focused, 10-20% LIFE focused. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Tracking macros gives you nutrition knowledge that you’ll use through and through to fall back on. It requires you to care about/learn the WHY you’re eating what you’re eating and what’s IN the foods you’re eating 🤓⁣
⁣⁣
Once you learn how to do that? YOU’RE SOLID GOLD BABY. ⁣⚡️⁣
⁣⁣
No night out, restaurants closing or empty shelves will stop you from reaching your goals ⁣🙌🏼⁣
⁣⁣
Now excuse me while I go eat freezer veggie pasta and cottage cheese while I hit my macros for the day 😂🍝
