Nutritional Cooking

This is something that I have been very aware of since I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure. It seems that the biggest majority of people who are diagnosed with HPB also are told that if they lose weight it will increase the chances of lower their Blood Pressure.

Losing weight is harder than just a saying it, trying to do it and actually doing it. I do not believe in diets. I am sure there are diets that are affective, and I am sure some people have great results from them. If you do a Google Search on diets there were 22,000,000 results. So out of the 22,000,000 you know people have had to have results! I have often heard that losing weight is more than just losing it, the objective is keeping the weight off. I am a firm believer instead of dieting, people that focus more on changing your eating habit have better over results.

Five Simple Chicken Recipes

Chicken Recipes

Five simple chicken recipes

hate cooking more than anything during the summer time. The weather is hot and when you cook; the stove causes additional heat. Yuck! So what I have done is created a way to take care of a few problems with one handy trick. Bulk cooking my chicken!!

From my other lens, I am sure by now the message of me being pretty frugal is nothing new. I watch for sales very closely at our local grocery store. Here in the south we have a store called Ingles, and by me watching their sales, I pretty much have a grasp of the schedule they use for certain sale items such as chicken. I am SO particular about my chicken; I only eat boneless, skinless chicken breast that has not been fed hormones. Tyson is the brand I usually get and when it is on sale, I can spend ten dollars and get five meals from that batch of chicken.

So, what I am going to do is list five recipes we eat regularly and how I make cooking dinner fast and easy without adding additional heat to my home and most important the meals are pretty nutritional. The only sodium you will find in my meals is the hidden sodium in foods, but even that is monitored pretty closely.

Believe you can do it and you can. My husband always tells me that once I set my mind to something, I can achieve it. I often think about my "Life Patterns" and in an odd way I agree with him. But for me it a two-fold thing now; I know what I must do, but my "Senior" mind is telling me if I want something then I have earned the years to have it. Of course I am talking about one of my addictions and that is "Sweets".

It has been a year now since I was told that I have High Blood Pressure and I needed to lose some weight. I look at this situation, look at the amount of food I eat, and not making any excuses, I really do not eat a lot. BUT what I do is eat the wrong foods and not exercise enough??
