It's about time someone said this out loud. In this post, Marion Nestle at Food Politics writes about what I've been experiencing for years: An extra fifty or hundred calories a day is not going to make that much difference in the long run. It takes a lot more than that to make a significant change in one's weight.
Which, unfortunately, means that small changes in my diet are not going to make this twenty (going on twenty-five) extra pounds go away. I knew it, but I didn't want to have to face it. Oh well.

It's all about me and my food.
Why are we here?
I'm Liz T., and it's all about what I put in my face.
In early 2008 I waded into flexitarianism (less than 10% of calories from animal protein.) My initial focus was to find mostly whole food recipes I could have on the table in 45 minutes that my son would eat. That's slowly expanded into discovering what else I can make from scratch, limited only by my short attention span and day job.
Oh yeah, and in the meantime, I'm still trying to climb off the twenty-pound roller coaster.
How's it going? Stay tuned...
