1 week

YEAH for 1 week! I am so glad to have 1 week in the books. It's been a good week learning to "cook" all over again, sitting down for meals and enjoying the right foods all over again. The cool part about this week has been being back in the kitchen and cooking again-but this time, cooking things that are healthy and good for me. I forgot what it was like to measure food and know what 8oz really is compared to me eye balling it every time. BOY was I off! Learning what the right amount of seasoning is compared to me thinking it was the right amount. Trust me 3-4 shakes is WAY to much. :)

This week has also had it's downs. Twice this week I found myself thinking of junk food, but the plus side was that I was only "thinking" about it, I wasn't eating it. Last night I attended a meet and greet at Kent State University. They had the whole spread out....and I had veggies and it was good. I'm learning too that life isn't about food. Yes, it keeps us healthy and we need it to live, but it's not my life. It's not who I am anymore. I'm learning again to appreciate the finer things in life-and finer isn't fine dining. :)

Thank you to everyone for following and your encouraging words-God is great all the time and I am so thankful that I'm not walking this journey alone!
