even diets have recipes!!!

These are some of my favorite cookbooks!

I started looking for recipes that encourage losing weight but still meet some basic needs: 1) they must be filling, if you’re still hungry afterwards then you’re still challenged, 2) they must still meet basic nutritional needs of the body, I found giving up alcohol and sugar less of a challege than balancing meats and fats and 3) it must be sustainable or like a rubber band you will just gain it all back!

So I took my time and explored what I really wanted and could give up and what I wanted and could manage and regulate.

homemade bagels… a must for me… so I make room for them❤️
