I hope to eventually update the blog daily with a food accountability log. That has worked for me in the past but every new routine takes some getting used to. Today, I am happy to report that my first step in my journey back to wellness (health, emotional, spiritual, financial, etc.) has started with eating cottage cheese with homemade pear jam for breakfast the past 4 days.
I doubt there are many people out there who would say that cottage cheese changed their life, but it's a healthy alternative for me and one that I know that I can live with. When I was pregnant with my son two years ago, I developed gestational diabetes and had to test my blood sugar several times a day and also followed a more balanced diet than I was accustomed to. Cottage cheese and fruit got me through the last three months of my pregnancy and I'm glad to get back on track like I did then.
I've also eaten a salad or two and am working on portion control - not an easy task for me when it comes to pasta which we had for dinner tonight. But like the title says, every journey begins with a step and I'm just getting started!
