As I get back into my journey, I decided to update my tag line today. I like the original but want to keep a few things in mind every time I look at the site. I really love the book Food Rules by Michael Pollan where he distills the essence of how we need to think about food and eating. That makes up the first three phrases. I added the next two because I believe they are equally important to a well-rounded plan.

You must “move” as well as eat right. Activity is a core part of keeping the calories burned to intake ratio the right way.

This may just be for me, but to really keep this in the forefront of my mind and to keep me honest, I’ve found that writing about this journey is essential. You can look at the beginning of this blog and see a lot and then it fades. Along with the lack of writing is the sliding back into bad behaviors.
