Whew! Finally the weekend and doesn't it seem like it is busier than our work/school week? Laundry, grocery shopping, cleaning & organizing, washing cars, working out, cooking, and tons of other errands are on my list (also working this weekend ewwww).
Keeping all those things in mind today is the best day to start fresh! Do yourself, your roommates, family, and anyone else who eats at your house and get rid of the junk! Yes, be brave! Throw it out, dumpster time!! I'm talking everything bad! Don't know what I'm talking about? Here's a list
Things to get rid of:
White bread
Flour tortillas
Cereal high in sugar
Sweet yogurts
Lunch meats
Processed cheeses
Candy bars
Crackers (like goldfish and cheese-it's)
Sugary juices
Ice cream
White flour pasta
Coffee creamer

If you think something is questionable, TOSS IT! Do yourself a favor and when you run your errands this week don't give in to the temptation of pretty labels and yummy sweets! Keep them out of sight and even though it doesn't mean out of mind, it's doing yourself and everyone you live with a favor.
