Things have changed around here, not big changes, little ones that hopefully will all add up to a healthy daddy and family. I never thought we ate bad, i mean i make dinner sun- thurs, but after meeting the dietitian in the hospital over 2 weeks ago, i realized our "binge weekend" eating out was literally going to be the death of us. Not like we didn't say it, after every weekend, we'd say, ugh, eating out all weekend is gross, and expensive, but it is so freaking easy. Especially after a long week. But, ryan and i both want our kids to grow up like we did, when eating out is a treat, not a fri/sat regular thing. So, nothing like a little life altering event to spur ya into action!! Today marks our 15th homemade dinner!! whoot whoot! and i feel great! I really owe it all to my new best friend Jamie Oliver and his awesome cookbook, "Jamie's food revolution". His recipes are all simple, fast, real food. Like my favorite food ever, french fries, instead of opening the bag of ore ida (ever look on the back of em, what is in there??) or going to culvers, now i matchstix some potatoes, little olive oil, and roast them, Delicious!!! and the true test, the kids ate them up!! I feel less like crap monday morning too. And salads, all that bull crap i always read in magazines, "eat a salad before a meal, eat less", yup, its true.
My best work buddy I are walking on lunch now, we are up to 2 miles a day this week! So all i can say is watch out Jamaica, some hot stuff is gonna be coming your way!!! ha ha!!
But, most of all, I would love to keep losing weight, but most important is we are all healthy. And we teach the girls to be active and eat good. God knows their genetics are not in their favor!!!
