Listen to Your Mom

My mom said that she read that people who have food journals are thinner than those who don't. I will not tell her that I've heard it before. I'm ACTUALLY going to give her some credit, and I'm ACTUALLY going to follow some of her advice. (MOM! Get off the ground. It's ok! I'm still the SAME(ish) Kari!)

There's a first time for everything...and here's my first day of BLOGGING what I eat.
The plan is to update the blog after I finish a meal, snack, drink, or put something in my mouth and SWALLOW. (Does licking count? I don't know yet....YES! Of course it counts! See how I'm ALREADY trying to trick myself???)

No more lying to myself about what I eat. No more FORGETTING about what goes into the BELLY....It'll all be here, in BLACK AND WHITE for ALL of you to judge...and for me to ACTUALLY be accountable for.

Wow....I'm going to take responsibility for SOMETHING for the first time ever.

Join me? Won't you?

Until Next Bite....
