A total revamp!!!!!

Well, I guess after one post it isn't really a revamp.. but whatever! It's my blog, I'll do/say what I want!

Anyway..

So I've decided it's about that time (To bring forth the rhythm and the rhyme! Bad Marky Mark reference? I think not.) to get my diet in order.  I need to lose this baby weight that should have been off over a year ago. I know, I know.. you're all thinking, "OMG! so is she not going to post her delicious recipes showing off her awesome cooking skillz?" but don't worry.. I will still post everything I do.. now it will just be low carb/low gluten. I know it can be a bit difficult finding decent recipes for this kind of diet, so here I will be, the Urban-Suburban Kitchenista to the rescue!  I will be posting my recipes, along with the occasional picture, for the world to see!  And hey, my sweet hunny-bunny of a husband bought me a pretty awesome apron for Christmas.. so I need an excuse to show it off.

To be blunt, I've chosen this kind of diet because it works.  It helps shed pounds quick, and takes you off of food that should have been limited in the first place.  The only thing with Atkins/Gluten free, the weight can come back.  So instead of a diet, I'm going for more of a lifestyle change.  This way, I can learn to limit yet still indulge, if that makes sense. I just need to learn not to crave the bad stuff.. like pop.  I love pop almost as much as my first born.. so this will be hard.  I like diet pop.. but diet pop to me is a gateway drug.  I start with diet pop... then it leads to regular pop. then it leads to double big gulps.. sigh. So it just need to cut it out completely.


Well, today was day one.. and I'm still motivated, so it's been an easy day.

Today I have had: One 2 eggs omelet with 2 slices of American cheese and a Caesar salad, no croutons.  I had a large Dunkin Donuts coffee and 3 large glasses of water with lemon.  I think I'm off to a decent start!  I will slowly start weaning myself from my other crack, also known as coffee, in hopes to transition into a decaf tea. Ew.. but I will force myself to love and enjoy it, I guess.

 The motivation lessens as the weeks go on, but I'm pretty serious this time, so hopefully it will stick

OK, I'm done babbling.  Look for my recipes.
