“l'm spending less time in the kitchen because you’ve figured it all out. Shopping lists, and nutritionally sound plan that I’m not spending any time thinking about. I’d spend hours every week trying to figure out what to feed the fam, making the list, shopping, and then prepare and clean up. The cues to chop veggies for multiple meals, freeze, thaw, and when to shop cuts a lot of time. I’d rather spend that time playing with my granddaughter. The recipes are not complicated but VERY delicious. No food waste because you’ve planned it that way. That’s a biggie for me.
You’ve turned me into an Instant Pot pro which is a huge time saver.
You’ve taught me some kitchen skills too.
I love to cook, I want to put healthy food in my body and I am a lover of organization.
During this quarantine my friends are complaining of gaining weight, I’ve lost weight and mentally and emotionally feel great. I’m off BP meds. My labs, including HgbA1C which measures average blood glucose over a 3 month period is 5.7 which is now normal !!! This is the year of self-care and self-love and whatever time I spend preparing food for myself and my family is just that.
Thank you Lorena for what you do, it has changed my life
PS I feel so wonderful not using fast food lanes and premade food and then feeling physically ill and guilty. Those days are gone !!!!"
Thank you, Lorena, for putting out this program, perfectly timed to start the new year after (over)indulging over the Christmas holidays. Such a daunting and time-consuming and therefore intimidating goal for a pig like me to eat healthy EVERY DAY... but with all the recipes lined up for all the days, all three meals every day, I couldn’t even find an excuse not to participate! Your enthusiasm and passion are contagious and best of all, your recipes are delicious... not just very good, but out of the ordinary great. For anyone that LOVES good food, there is just no more reason to eat any other way than healthy and clean when it’s this yummy. For sure, I am just going to continue throughout the year even though it is a lot of work to plan and prepare all the meals each week. Not only have I lost the few extra pounds I gained over the holidays, but I am also saving quite a lot by not eating out. The best and most amazing part for me is that I don’t crave desserts anymore. It’s huge for me to come to this point, as I have been absolutely addicted to desserts and sweets ALL my life. I don’t even feel like I’m depriving myself right now. I know that eventually, I will go back to having desserts, but only occasionally and/or in special celebrations. This, coming from someone who could eat only desserts every day, three meals a day, if I could be healthy this way.... never imagined this could be possible!
