Healthier

Two weeks ago Stephen and I started to eat and live more healthy. We both had gained some weight, and were not eating as well as we knew we should. We set down guidelines. First, that we would work out together. Second, we would have one sweet day a week. This is mostly for me. At school I have a bag of candy that my students can buy with tickets they get for good behavior. I would eat a lot of those a day. Third, eat more balanced meals.

It has worked well for us. I have lost four pounds, and Stephen has lost eight. We both feel so much better inside, and stronger.

Another thing that Stephen is starting to do is eat whole wheat pasta and bread instead of bleached white flour. Because whole wheat bread is so expensive I am trying to make bread for him. Today is my first try. Here is what it looks like now.

Hopefully once it is risen, and baked, it will look a lot more appealing.
