2012

Its a new day up in here, up in here.

I'm off that damned depo provera.  I was able to drop 12 pounds with diet and exercise, though I've undone all that progress by living off cookies and shit all through the holidays.

But 2012 is here.  Detox baby.  I'm going to have some drinks and hormone laden beef and sugary junk New Years Eve.  But come Sunday....its on.

I'm making some changes around here.  I want to get healthy. I want to be what the government calls a healthy weight before I sign up for life insurance. I want good, under 30, non smoker/drinker, skinny rates.

So this blog, though I'm sure will still be full of bitching because come ON thats what I DO, will have a lot of posts about food. GOOD food.  I have a TON of healthy recipes and I want to try tons more. I want to review them and upload pictures and share them with people who want to share this journey with me.  I'm a foodie.  I love to cook. I love good food and good ingredients.  I cannot and will not live off lean cuisines and packaged 'diet' food.  I like fresh vegetables prepared in a way that preserves their natural flavors and nutrients. 

I'm also OCPD.  Look it up.  I'll wait. All that?? Thats me. I'm a planner and THANK GOD because you cannot run a healthy household without that personality flaw.  So I will also be putting meal plans and the like on here because again, it makes me feel in control.  Which I need to live.

So cheers to 2012.  If we are all going to die in December, I want to go out looking and feeling good. If we don't see Armageddon? I'll have a good start for expanding my family ;)
