Hey Seny, it's good to hear you are starting out with a food plan, even if it is simple. Taking a couple of small steps, especially at first, will really make a difference. Just make sure to not "replace" the calories in other ways, it's really easy to say "I'm not drinking coke anymore, so I can afford X sweet treat!" but if you do that, then you are really going to frustrate yourself.
At least that is how it worked for me, amigo. Stay strong! ~QJ
Edit: Hey, Juliette has a good point about the cleaning. Just go through and do a "quick clean" on your place. The goal isn't to make it spotless, the goal is to make it cleaner than it was.
One of the things I do is go around with a big garbage bag and just pick up the clutter, it drives me nuts. But I am basically a bachelor with a roommate who thinks I am here to throw things away and do dishes for him, so we tend to build up clutter quickly. It's just an easy cleaning task to do, every few days, just pick up a bag of clutter, and haul out your kitchen trash whether it needs it or not.
It's one of the things that keeps me sane, maybe it'll help for you. Later!
