I could not have asked for a better summer. It has been a summer of blessings and changes. Since June my career has changed, I am happier and at peace. I have started a new work-out and training for my first 5-K. I never thought I would be at a place where I could do and be who I wanted to be. But its amazing what you can do and how believing in who you were created to be can change the playing field of life.
Since changing jobs I have been able to focus on my health and truly begin to live a healthier lifestyle. As of August 1st I began a new low carb journey which is changing my life like never before. I have lost 9 lbs in 3 weeks. I could not ask for anything better because it is causing me to explore new food and desire for fresh foods. I no longer crave fast food , though I do have my moments of missing french fries, popcorn & chips. Not to say that I can not eat those foods but I know the portion I "should" eat and what I "will" eat therefore I personally have chosen to STAY AWAY.
In the attempt to discover a healthier me, I am developing an inner chef that I did not realize was there. My palate has changed helping to realize the wide world of foods I have been missing out on. Below are some photos of my culinary feats. I will attempt to post more in the future on the work-outs and the cuisine in hopes to inspire someone to take on the challenge of becoming a healthier you.
