Another edition of “What I Ate This Week,” complete with some cheat snacks that I indulged in while Todd was traveling. February is right around the corner, and my healthy eating challenge is almost over. But I do plan to stick to this way of eating, for the majority of meals at least. I do think I will add in a few grains. I would like to be able to eat steel cut oats some for breakfast, and I will definitely be eating popcorn more regularly. I haven’t worked out like I should, so that is the most important goal for me this week!
