I've been a bad, bad, negligent blogger for.... pretty much the entire lifetime of this blog. That is going to have to change, along with the myriad other things I have to change about my lifestyle.
My partner got the dreaded "o-word" from the doctor: obese. Hence the complete and total overhaul of our diets that I'm now on the crusade for. Combined with exercise, we're both looking at dropping some pounds to get us back on track for a healthy lifestyle. Our new bathroom scale arrived the other day, for accurate, day-to-day measurements. I picked up a kitchen scale, to accurately weigh my foods and count calories per serving so we can eat well together. I renewed my subscription to Vegetarian Times magazine; though neither of us are actually going full-on vegetarian, I still love many of the recipes in there and we're working on cutting back the meat in our diets to about twice a week. My floor mat is set up with a new set of dumbbells for a light work-out each morning. And because my partner is slightly number-crazy, we've put together a spreadsheet to tabulate daily calorie intake and graph our weight loss progress. I think I stopped listening when he started going on about fitting exponential regression lines... but it's still there :)
Let the cooking fun and games begin!
