Introduction	I absolutely love to cook and eat, however I also care about my health and if my jeans still fit. I wanted to start blogging because I think there are some misconceptions about diet, eating and exercise. I used to do all of the wrong things when it came to living a healthy life. I would eat fat free, no flavor food and had a body fat percentage that was in the upper 20s. Then at some point something just clicked. I starting making real food that was satisfying and more nutritious. My weight and my diet have come a long way since then. During the week I stick to a pretty low calorie, high flavor diet and I try to make it to the gym 3-5 times a week. On the weekends I don’t have as much structure and I may splurge on something really great. I am not a fan of fad diets or extremes, even though I can tell you that I have done both. I want to teach people about better health and living a balanced life. Hopefully you will enjoy the quick and not so quick recipes that I prepare.
