Welcome

By simple definition metamorphosis means change. What I am hoping to achieve is so much more than that.

From dictionary.com:
"a profound change in form from one stage to the next in the life history of an organism"

And from merriam-webster.com:
"a striking alteration in appearance, character, or circumstances"

I will strive to be a better version of the me that I am today. Both physically and in my character. As they say, "today is the first day of the rest of my life."

Eating Clean

I've been doing some online research about what it means to eat clean.  I'm thinking I may try to change my eating to be closer to this type of eating pattern.  Here's the basics of what I found:
A person that eats clean generally practices the following:
  • Eliminates refined sugar (This change may take time, but I'll try.)
  • Cooks healthy meals (with easy to follow online recipes, this should be easy)
  • Packs healthy meals (I already do this for my lunch.)
  • Makes healthy choices when dining out (I don't eat out much, but I can certainly make better choices.)
  • Drinks a lot of water (I can increase my water intake.)
  • Eats 5-6 small meals per day (This could be a tricky thing for me. We'll see.)
  • Eliminates alcoholic beverages or significantly limits it (I already don't drink much.)
  • Always eats breakfast (This would be a big change for me, but I can do it.)
So tonight, with chicken breasts in the fridge, I'm trying to find an easy recipe. I'm thinking simple BBQ chicken and grilled veggies.  Sounds perfect to me, we'll see if the kids agree. 


Doesn't look great in the picture, but it tasted really yummy. The bonus, the kids ate it too!
