The Taylor household started on a journey to "healthified". I don't want to call it a diet because it's not going anywhere- as in we're not going to give it up in 2 months. I'd say it's more of a lifestyle change. So far it's been awesome. It all started because I wanted to loose some weight. I was exercising like crazy but wasn't losing anything.... See back in the olden days, I could work out and kinda watch what I ate and I'd lose weight. Apparently after 25, that's not the case. So I started searching the good ole world wide web for healthy recipes that were still good. I think that's the key- the food has to be good. You can't feel like you're "on a diet". I compiled all of my recipes into a binder and have been making them 4-5 nights a week. I have yet to make the same meal twice, and I've only made a couple that I probably wouldn't make again. The hubs actually rates each meal with gold star stickers...
Since cooking these healthified meals (and doing better during the day as far as lunch/snacks go), I've lost a good bit of weight.
So that's the back story to this here blog. I plan to post the recipes as I try them- and give yall feedback and suggestions. I promise- these meals are soooo good and most of them are under 300 calories per serving (and believe it or not, the serving size is pretty good- filling too). Most nights there's enough for the hubs to take the leftovers to work for lunch.
So here goes! If yall have any questions or suggestions, let me know!! My binder has over 100 recipes in it so far, so if you're looking for a certain something, let me know and if I have it in my binder, I'll share it with ya! ;)
