View WILLLOSEIT's food & exercise for this day

ok, i admit it
i love food shows
i live vicariously
through ina, giada
rachael ray too

emeril makes me smile
there goes another bam
daisy loves to cook
alton wants to know
what’s inside

tyler calls 911
michael hosts another party
paula’s down home
cooking up a storm

thank goodness
watching doesn’t add pounds
imagining the tastes
guilt-free calories
no calories
mmmm, sure looks good

yes, i love food shows
ah, but I love food too
and i love baking
that’s exact
and cooking when creative
recipes to guide
not to follow
precisely

i collect recipes
cookbooks and clipped
all kinds
I just love having them around
to look at
to live vicariously through
just like the contessa

now the mother
of invention
i look to change the ingredients
variations on a theme
reduce fat


make it still taste
mmmm good

trying to get by
and lose weight
while still in the kitchen
and in front of the tv
being the cook
watching the chefs
but making the choices
that are good for me

I love the Food Network too! It is my favorite pasttime on a Saturday morning. I really am such a foodie...wonder how I got this way! ;) I am learning how to make healthy substiutes and at least get ideas for new foods to try!

Hi Grace :hi: I absolutely love Food Network, too! And you have the right idea about using your creativity to make unhealthy favorites healthy favorites. I love to cook and have been the designated family baker my whole life, but I don't have the familiarity with what ingredients exactly do to make accurate substitutions; and so, I do calorie break downs of recipes and cook, often teamed up with my mother, the ones that have healthy stats :) This journey is just a huge exploration slowly spinning in the right direction :) There is a learning and experimenting curve to this, but in the end, we will be masters of health! Most sincerely, Kristen :heart1:
