Re-Boot

Well, 2013 was quite the year. I'll be creating a lot of separate posts on these topics later.

  • I was diagnosed with diabetes in January (both expected and unexpected) so I started making big changes. 
  • I adopted a lower-carb diet (not entirely) and lowered my intake of refined sugar by a lot. 
  • I joined Weight Watchers in April 2013. I lost about 20 pounds pretty quickly, but I've stalled a bit since then. 
  • My housemates & I signed up for a bi-weekly veggie & fruit box delivery. 
  • I bought a second crock-pot.
My current goals mostly revolve around learning to cook more healthy dishes that I enjoy.  I want to master at least 3 this year. I'm focusing on Weight Watcher's recipes, and if they're for the crockpot, so much the better. The plan (or at least part of it) is to get a group together to try new recipes.

Also, I lost an aunt last month, and in her honor, I am determined to bake a sweet potato pie from scratch, by myself.
