It's all Gray

The stories and struggles of a girl with a book in one hand and junk food in the other...

I almost fainted in the frozen food section of my grocery store today.  Now that I have changed my diet and actually read nutrition information...I am shocked at the calories that I used to consume.
Jason and I would buy the frozen make at home chinese food all of the time, today in the store I read the label and almost hit the floor.  One bag of mandarin chicken, (that we used to split in half) has 230 calories per serving..not including sauce....and it said there were 8 servings in the bag.  WHAT???

We used to split the bag and have rice and carrots with it...and an egg roll too....

Needless to say, I will not be consuming that again any time soon...

Tonights menu, chicken sausage with corn and rice.

I am doing well on the 1600 calories per day, and according to the labels, when we did make at home chinese food I was consuming that many calories in one meal.

What's the story?

Besides my amazing husband ,my family ,my two dogs, and music (what can I say, I'm a big girl with a big heart so there's a lot I love) my two greatest loves in life are books and food. The food part however has been a life long struggle. So this blog will be used to track my journey through my bookshelf, and to my treadmill, and I need all of the support that I can get!

About me..
