Proud of myself!
I just had to share that I went to MacDonalds for breakfast with my besty & my DD's - and I got CEREAL...... and a black coffee... I missed my BLT bagel & hashbrown  but I also felt pretty good to be strong enough to say no, and to order what I knew was a healthier choice.
Grocery shopping is next... THAT will be interesting... send lots of healthy food purchases my way

Gabrielle, if you can defeat the Evil McClown, then simple grocery store foods don't stand a chance. Your cart won't dare turn down any of those salty/sweet/uh-uh-no-way aisles and the produce will be fighting to be the ones to end up in your cart.
Great job!

Huh? McDonald's has cereal? Really? I can't believe I haven't seen two million commercials for it, like when they announced the fruit smoothies.
How was it?
Good for you!!! Keep it up!

Oh i just wanted to add I'm in New Zealand so we probalby have different options than you.. but as part of their breakfast menu there are 3 different cereals & milk you can have...
The grocery shop went great! Didn't even look at the potato chips - and went in with a list & didn't get anything that wasn't on the list....

Congratulations!
Next time you're faced with Mickey D's, you could opt for the Egg McMuffin if cereal doesn't hit the spot. They're 300 calories, but super-filling thanks to all the protein. I make my own version at home all the time, though I swap out the ham for a thick slice of tomato. 300 calories of pure yum. 
Major congratulations on sticking to the grocery list, too!
