Living Well Revamp

I have been back and forth with different things that I thought would be beneficial to my families health but it is always short term As I transition on a new adventure (moving) I want to start making better choices to meet my goals financially and health wise.

Here are my thoughts. 
Budget - i had one i stopped and I need to do it again.

Meal Planning (it always sounds weird to me to say I want to meal plan because it seems like something I never saw my mother do but I think if I had a plan for what we were going to eat then I would have a good basis to make a detailed grocery list and shop exactly for needed items.

Grocery shopping. (I have not been doing it. Sucks so bad that I just pick up items here and there instead of having a true idea of what we need so that we are not just spending money on food all the time. 

Meal prep.(when I get the groceries home depending on what it is I need to cut the onion put it in the freezer, clean and separate the chicken for future meals instead of just cleaning it and putting it in a freezer bag but not having a portion in mind. Crock pot or whatever meals for two days in advance so I don't have to worry about who will cook what when.

Other options co-op to not only encourage healthy eating in my community but have my fruit and produce mailed to me. I signed up for www.washingtonsgreengrocer.com (put me as your referral if you sign up. Visit some local farms for my fruits and veggies as a field trip for the family and also 

Shoot I am exhausted just writing this but I know the benefits will be awesome. If you want to do this together Amen if you want to just support me from afar and check in to see my progress I appreciate that as well. 

Do you have any other suggestions? 

Thanks for reading if nothing else.
Peace and Blessings

Even before my son I wanted to make better decisions on products I used in my home. I played around with different ideas but I didn't really take it seriously. Now with all the many reports and information coming out about living well instead of just using any products I am determined to be better for my family. This blog is all about the initiative I have started for myself to live well.

Do you live well?

What is stopping you from making the choices you want to make for yourself or your family?

It is no better time than now.


Let's start this journey together...
