Greetings and Salutations

<< Waves to all my new friends>> Hi everyone, I am a young 38 year old single mother that has lost herself and is now ready to find me again. on January 1, 2013, I said to my 6 year old we are going to change our eating habits and get healthy, he laughed and said we dont need to change our eating we just need to go on a diet because that is what his teacher taught them duing nutrition class. I soon realized that we are brainwashed as early as grade 1. We did good for a little while but we were soon back in our old ways. I would yo yo meals but about a month ago I had enough and decided that I wanted to try new recipes and make everyone eat them. The only problem to that is after cooking for others for a while I dont want to look at food, I want it prepared for me placed in front of me and taken away when I am done. It is time like this when I really need support, and when I am face to face with other stressors (single mother, balancing a budget, dealing with sports, looking for a better job ....... and people will always ask sure you have plenty of time on your hands ....... dear lord help me)

so my goal ..... to find me again, and to be content with me not what I think people will want but what I want after all I am doing this only for me and my child (just a reminder to myself when I need a good kick in the, well you know what)
