I love to cook! I have been a caterer and I am passionate about providing a comfortable atmosphere complete with excellent tasting food for those I love. The drawback: my yummy recipes are high in fat and don’t look good on me.

I want to try to compile great tasting food that is also healthy. Being accountable to you, the reader, will motivate me to continue my goals.

Here are my goals:

1. To be thin! OK, I am 56. Thin is out of my picture, but I want to be a comfortable size 10 or 12.

2. To enjoy the healthier recipes enough that they will remain a lifetime part of my cooking.

3. To reach out to others on a similar path.

Here is what I want to blog:
1. My road to a new and healthier body (weights and measurements).
2. Daily food and exercise along the way (pictures added).
3. The recipes and cost ($) of the food (calorie counts).

Beginning January 1, 2011, for one month I will try out a new low fat recipe everyday and blog my findings. Please share your thoughts. After 1 month, and I am successful, I would like to do a complete makeover on my yummy cook book.

Here I go!

4 Days to go.........

I feel that I am starting to get a handle on this. It really does take a lot of research and time. I guess that is why people pay $ is to just have someone else do it for them. It would easier, but as I have said, I have already done that and I have not learned a great deal. I have not stayed committed. This time, with me working harder myself, I expect better results.

I actually have some recipes that I am looking forward to trying. I am going to see if I can find a way on this blog to put in my whole calendar but until then, I will go day by day.

    I Shelly. This will be a journey and a brave thing to do. As a weight watcher for 10 years now, I have had many up and downs but have managed to get back to the program and it works for me. I will tell you that a friend joined me last a year ago and she has lost 40 and I lost 30 that I gained after my hip replacement. Having a friend to follow with keeps us on track most of the time. I hope I can follow along with you because you have alot to share.
    Love ya Brig!!
