FABULOSITY!!! congratulations! and not just on the weight loss - what you did to turn your family's eating habits around is nothing short of miraculous.

soooo, inquiring minds want to know - what did you plant in your garden besides spinach? did you grow enough stuff to can/freeze for the winter?

I planted spinach, carrots, green onions, and peppers.

I didn't want to take on too much just in case I found it wasn't for me. But I loved it. It was relaxing and enjoyable for the whole family. MUCH bigger garden this year. Spinach, brussel spouts ( kids LOVE them grilled and dipped in olive oil), peppers, kale, corn, potatoes, watermelon, tomatoes, and some herbs.
I'm hoping to freeze and can. It's a great hobby to get into and I'm so excited about it!!

You look amazing! What a transformation! You are an inspiration. I like that you didn't lose it all over night. You are proof that slow and steady wins the race!

Congrats! You look great! I wish I could garden, but I live in an apartment so it's not allowed.

Congratulations. You look fantastic, and it's great that you made healthier living a family thing. This year I've been learning what you've already learned about processed foods and vegetable oils and such. Knowing how bad the bad stuff is makes eating right a bit easier.
