About my blog

For quite some time now I have wanted and tried to make a lifestyle change to eat healthier and to overcome my addiction to sugar, but have not been successful.  I doubt many will argue with me that it’s a good idea to eat more healthily, but it may sound a bit extreme to be so worried about sugar.  However, my frequent consumption of 1,000+ calories of high-sugar foods in one day could do some serious damage to my body and quality of life.  By eating in this manner, I am additionally not being a good role model to my son for healthy eating, nor am I supporting my husband’s goals to eat healthy meals.

God has fearfully and wonderfully made us and our amazing bodies, and He wants us to use these bodies to serve Him and to help and serve those in the world around us.  But, we must keep our bodies in good health to do this to the fullest.  That is the motivation for this blog – to motivate myself and others to eat healthily so that we can be in good health to serve God and help and bless others, and most importantly so that we honor God by taking care of the precious bodies he's blessed us with.  I believe that by chronicling what I cook, I will be motivated and encouraged to continue in this lifestyle change.

I am excited to share any recipes that I have, so please ask if you see something you'd like to make but that I've not posted a recipe for.  Also, I would love to receive recipes and ideas from those of you who follow my blog.  Thank you so much for taking the time to follow this blog and to encourage me on my path to healthy eating!
