We (my hubby and I) are going to be keeping our calories in check for awhile. Me a while longer than he. But who’s counting? Ummmm. That’d be us. So, along with our old goals for this site:
- family-friendly
- mom-approved
- easy
- quick
- common ingredients
We are now adding:
- healthy!!!
Now, I realize everyone has their own definition of healthy, so here’s what I mean, and what we aim to write in our recipes:
- low fat
- more complex carbs
- more chicken & fish, less red meat
- more servings of fruits & veggies
- hubby is also tracking fiber intake (which lessens the impact of the fat in our gut)
- and I’m also tracking protein intake (which keeps blood sugar stable longer than carbs)
To sum up: Heart Healthy.
Are you as excited as I am?
Mike is using the weight watchers points system, and I am tracking calories and other foods at SparkPeople, which is a free service! I’m o2cathy over there, if you see me, say ‘hi’!
Lots more to come! Keep an eye on those feed readers,
Here’s to your health,
Cathy
