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
