After my husband and I completed a 60-day juice fast, I knew that learning to cook and eat in a healthier way would be a challenge. I am a self-confessed pasta and cake addict. Having worked in catering and owned a restaurant, I was not a stranger nor was I adverse to healthy foods - but I was often drawn to the dark side. I love to cook Italian, loved to season everything with cheese. Before the fast, I weighed 250 pounds, after and currently, I weigh 214 pounds. I am on a journey to reach 150 and know it will take many more months of healthy eating. So I decided I would share what I learned in this blog in the hopes that someone else might benefit from it.
One last thing - many of my recipes will be descriptions of experiments and may not contain exact measurements. If you are a cook that needs that kind of surety - you might need to look elsewhere. If you are someone who peruses cookbooks in bookstores and says "oh that's how you do that" closes the book and doesn't buy the book - this blog is for you.
