Hello fellow readers and welcome! My name is Steph and I chow all the time... I get made fun of at work for it... because I'm always snacking on something (hence the blog name). I'm of the 6 small meals a day thinking and eat every three hours or so. This however was not always the case, I used to eat like crap and eat gigantic meals. Dinner would start off with a half loaf of bread and a huge hunk of cheese (this was the appetizer...), there were no whole grains, and fewer veggies... I've always been active (competitive swimmer starting at age 7) so weight gain wasn't a huge issue (although college brought out the heaviest of me) but as I hit my 20's I started realizing what all that bad food was probably doing to my insides.... That's when I started to learn more about eating healthy and working out in the gym. I do cardio (running, biking, elliptical) 6 days a week and lift weights twice a week. I've always had big muscular thighs... and starving myself isn't going to make them go away... so I learned to love all my parts and started eating for a healthy body! My Nana always said "everything in moderation" and I fully believe in that. There is no reason to starve or deprive yourself. You can have dessert and it can be bad for you... and then you can have a dessert like the ones I have here, that are TASTY and HEALTHY! Best of both worlds :) I invented a lot of these recipes due to my picky eating (fiance) now husband! John (love you). He wont eat anything with red meat, white flour, butter, or white sugar... so I needed to get creative... and with creativity comes some funny failures... and some amazingly delicious dishes!! Please enjoy, have fun, and let me know what you think!!
Other random about me: I like to do anything outdoors (hike/camp), I placed second in NY state in an archery competition (watch out I'm a good shot!), I throw pottery (on the wheel- not at people), I like to crochet and sew, COOK/BAKE (of course), play ultimate frisbee, lift weights, ski/snow board, read...and so on...
