About Us

By Kelly
Starting this journey of health and wellness has not been easy for us. We love to tailgate, have beers, and grill out. However, we got to the point where we were fed up with ourselves and wanted to feel better. Starting at 50+ pounds overweight, we are ready for a change, but do not want this to drastically affect our lifestyle. Join us as we navigate this path together and figure out what works and what doesn't work. 

We do not proclaim to be experts, nor do we intend for this blog to replace any sort of medical advice you may receive from your physician. Always talk to your doctor before embarking on any weight loss or fitness programs. 

This blog is merely a glimpse into our weight loss/fitness/healthy lifestyle journey, and if sharing this can make it easier for you, than we are glad to provide a sense of camaraderie. There are a lot of weight loss and fitness blogs out there. A lot. However, what we ultimately hope to provide is a success story from both of our perspectives.

One of the biggest fears I have had coming into this health and wellness journey is the social aspect - everything revolves around food!

I stuck by my motto of planning and preparation though, and I was able to successfully navigate this. However, it wasn't without its own set of drama. Let me recap...

We also wanted to add a vegetable to the side and came up with the idea to make lemon pepper broccoli. Here is the deliciousness that transpired from his creativity and his craving!

Buffalo Cauliflower

By Kelly
One of my favorite go to "spiced up" veggies is buffalo cauliflower. To me, cauliflower is kind of boring. But the nice thing about it is that it's very versatile and can be manipulated to resemble other foods that aren't on my path to health and wellness. But no, seriously, they are good!  It is not a trap as Admiral Ackbar is trying to warn you.  It's just a slight trick. I have missed chicken wings. I miss the sauce, I miss the spice, I miss going to B-dubs. However, I can still replicate this experience at home with my buffalo cauliflower as I watch the game on MLB TV. Some people may not be convinced, and that's ok. This works for me. I enjoy this recipe and make it often. You can add it to salad, you can serve it as a side dish, or it could be the main entrée. Buffalo cauliflower is healthy AND delicious! Here are the details:
