Get to know me and why I'm doing this...

Hi! I'm Jessica, a 27-year old artsy southern girl living in hot, humid South Mississippi.  I got married about 2 years ago to a wonderful husband who LOVES to cook.  He loves to cook those mouth-watering dishes that you can't resist.  Then, you find yourself buying new clothes, wearing cardigans over your old ones, or giving all your pants away to your slimmer family members.  I've tried diet after diet, counting calorie after calorie, read book after book, and you know what I discovered? I love food.  I just do.  There's no getting over it. 

I am also an artist.  I love to create, which most often mixes in with my cooking and baking.  I usually reserve my baking and cooking for friends or family so I won't be tempted into indulging into these incredible dishes all by myself.  Then, today, it hit me.  WHY deny what I love?  Time to start getting more creative.  I love a challenge, and this is a good one to go after. 

I want to start creating delicious, savory things to eat and not feel guilty about it- this all to prove to myself that I can love what I eat and not regret it tomorrow. In the midst of this journey, I am going to document my weight loss and share all of the knitty, gritty details with you! (Whether you like it not).

So, here it goes...
