New Year’s Resolution
This is a quick list of recipes and low calorie vegetarian foods that help me stay healthy. I lost 40 pounds in 2008 and it is a constant struggle to maintain my current ideal weight. The holidays were especially rough and I have chosen to rededicated myself as this year’s resolution. Here are a few tips and tricks that I would like to share and will probably refer to myself as 2010 continues. My New Year’s Day started off at IHOP (Garden Stuffed Crepes – 600 calories) so I have a long road ahead of me. With some hard work and diligent calorie counting I may be ready for the pig out fest that is going to be our Superbowl party this February!

Blending in a regular exercise routine is also key.
