Entering the world of blogging...

Ok, so I think I've tried to start a blog like 23492384029384023 times and I can never start/stick with it. I love finding blogs because you can find out the most AMAZING information out there. Everyone has their own ways of doing things. When I originally created this blog, it was going to be predominately a food blog (and trust me there will be plenty of food because I loooooooove to eat); however, I definitely going through some lifestyle changes and will include those kind of posts as well. So let me tell you a little bit about myself...

I've always struggled with my love of food and my love of not working out.. The two really don't go hand in hand. When I was a freshman in college, me and my roommate joined Weight Watchers and started running everyday (and it wasn't half bad!). I lost 25 lbs but when I plateaued I got frustrated and kind of gave up, I did keep the weight off for a while, but in the past 5 years I've gained it all back (and little more!). So now I'm back on track. I've rejoined Weight Watchers and joined a gym. I've been at this for a little over a month and lost around 8 lbs (yay!). But being from the South, we love our unhealthy, deep-fried, delicious food so it's a struggle being around those eating biscuits and fried chicken while I sit here and eat vegetables and fish. And because apparently this isn't hard enough, I'm going back to school in the fall to become a chef... and not just a chef and pastry chef! I love making sweets, I just can't sit there and eat them all. Good thing my sister and my boyfriend are HUGE sweet tooths :).

ANYWAYS... I'm going to post recipes on this blog (some healthy and some not so healthy). At this moment, I'm probably going to focus more on healthier recipes, but occasionally I might through in a cupcake recipe or something (I'm currently obsessed with making cupcakes!). I'm going to share my fitness and weight loss journey with you guys and because I'm losing weight and gaining more confidence, I want to reflect that confidence on the outside as well. So maybe some makeup and fashion. I told you... lifestyle change! Wherever the wind blows me (and whatever you guys want to see!). So pretty much there isn't a main focus for this blog, but if I had to say it would be food, fitness, and fashion. Hope you enjoy!
