Life changes

 Faced with a dilemma. Going to have to make a change to my way of eating.  Its now or never.  Every thing that is wrong with me is because I am fat.  Not just fat but obese.  And I am not happy about it.  So where do you begin.  First off I am going to eat all the food that we already have.  We spend way too much on food to let it go to waste.  I know that is probably not the best idea but I am going with it.  Then will spend time looking at recipes that healthy.  Not going Keto or Plano or what ever.  Just healthy.  Going to try to come up with some of my own recipes too.  Want to keep it simple.  Most recipes call for so  much  and its only the two of us.  It hard to find a site out there for cooking for two....so we might have to add this to our blog here.  Anyway, its going to be a challenge.  One I am not looking forward to.  But then again....maybe this will be a good thing.  I am so tired of cooking the same old things over and over.  Tom will just have to get used to it.  Fresh veggies and fruit for sure.  But first.  Cook up what I have.  I have some thing in mind for tonight and then will take stock of the freezer over the weekend.  Once I get it all eaten up then we can fill it with good food.  I am sorta depressed with it all.  So hoping that will change.  One suggestion I got today was start the day with protein.  And try to us protein more and more.  So will work on that.  Dr says 5 snack size meals a day.  So I bought snack size paper plates.  Will package walnuts in 1/4 cup servings.  Some cheese and sausage in small bags too.  Try to keep things handy.  Oranges and apples and easy to eat things.  Hard boiled eggs.  A lot of learning to do.  So going to get to learning.  Also, taking it one step at a time.  Going to take stock of freezer, make a menu using what we have and saving some of it for healthy menus in the future.  Will keep a log of the food I eat daily.  

Now, I have tried this before.  Always failed.  But this time I cant fail.  I wont let myself fail.  I will be praying each day.  Get my self a mantra.  I got this.
