Newbie!

Hi! I'm starting my quest to be healthy! I am a 50 yr old farm gal who has a wonderful family but loves to cook for them. I grow most of what I cook, but alas my habits are far from healthy so changes are starting now before my unhealthy habits get the best of me! When your looking at your grown children and grandchildren, you realize how precious life really is and I DO so want to be around for along time! So It starts now!

  • welcome to MFP! this is a good place to really look closely at what you're eating. i added two tsps of olive oil to my dinner last night and when i logged it in my diary i realized it was an extra 80 calories! i could eat two cold cuts for that! it's a good place for awareness. i'll add you.

  • I am fighting the oil stuff too. it seems lots of research is in order for me!
  • You would think that living on a s farm, We would all eat healthier! But with our schedules it is still easy to slip into the processed foods.
