Let Me Explain

"If a person's bodyweight is at least 20% higher than it should be, he or she is considered obese. If your Body Mass Index (BMI) is between 25 and 29.9 you are considered overweight. If your BMI is 30 or over you are considered obese." - Medical News Today

That is fact. It's not an opinion on the topic, but merely a definition. I don't believe you have to be skinny to be healthy.

This is about my misadventures in finding a FIT and happy place to be.

FOOD

I'd mentioned that I got into this whole meal prepping business, and I wanted to take a moment to share the recipes I've tried and really enjoyed. We usually tweak the recipes to my picky tastes, though, I'll give a link to the original because I'm awesome like that. <insert big goofy grin here>

Everything I've sought out had to do three things. It had to taste good above everything else. I'm not a veggies and cardboard kind of chick. Likely, if you see me munching a carrot and smiling, it's because I'm pretending it's cheesecake. Second, it has to give me the carbs I need to fuel my workouts, the protein I need to keep my muscles strong, and the vitamins I need to stay healthy. I'm not a nutritionist, so I'm going by what MyFitnessPal tells me to do. And third, it had to fill me up for under 500 calories because that's all I'm willing to spare at lunch.

I hope you enjoy the recipes as much as I have.
