Happy New Year! Resolutions...

[jenn_unplugged]

Last year my resolution was to live in the moment more with Carter and just enjoy his second year as much as I could. I feel like I did that well. Props to Scott Noelle, Alfie Kohn, and Naomi Aldort for for helping me find my path to relaxed, peaceful, joyful parenting. :-)

This year: We're planning an IVF cycle in the summer, and so my goal is to get as healthy as I can before June. I set a goal of losing 50 pounds back in October, and have lost 20 so far (though I'm betting I've put 5 back on over the holidays). So I guess my personal resolutions for this next year are:

1) Get healthier (lose 30 more pounds, exercise more regularly, eat better)
2) Get pregnant!
3) Learn to cook healthy food more creatively. (I need to branch out from steamed veggies and baked chicken, SRSLY.)

Happy New Year, everyone!

I'm not sure if you are interested in this style of cooking, but I've found The Vegetarian Mother's Cookbook to be a really awesome resource for healthy recipes, PLUS it's tailored to pregnant and lactating women (though anyone can benefit from it, and you can add meat to the recipes easily... I'm not a total vegetarian). I've been cooking out of it for a while and haven't been disappointed yet :)

Good luck on your resolutions!
