A little about me, I am currently a junior at Stephen F. Austin State University in lovely little Nacogdoches, Texas. I am a History/Political Science major. I plan on attending law school after graduating and with some hard work, specializing in either Tax or Intellectual property law.
I really enjoy history, but then I suppose it is a good idea to enjoy what you are majoring in in school. I have a particular interest in Chinese history both Imperial and Communist era (especially the The Cultural Revolution). Philosophy and politics are other areas that I can talk over for hours, preferably over coffee or drinks.
Now about this blog – I recently saw the movie “Julia & Julia” and was inspired to try to replicate Julia Powell’s experiment but substituting Men’s Health Ab’s Diet recipe section. I am taking 6 months to lose 60 pounds – there are 285 recipes in the Ab’s Diet Section. I intend to prepare all of them – some days I will make 2 or 3 recipes and others just the one recipe.
My reasons for doing this are many: a) I want to learn to eat in a more healthy manner, b) by learning to eat in a more healthy manner, my two major health problems- Type II Diabetes and Hypertension, will be resolved, and c) I want to show others that weight loss does not have to mean starving yourself – that you can eat really well and still maintain good nutrition.
Well this is it for about me. I will be posting more as I figure this blogging thing out. Cheers!
