We're goin' taters...

So... this has been a very interesting week for us. For all of you all there that aren't married yet, I will issue a warning for you... you will gain weight post marriage. Your honeymoon will be full of crappy, awesome junk food, and you will like to eat said food far more often than you used to. At least this was the story for us. I think its fair to say that its become obvious to both of us that we needed to make some adjustments to our diet.

So, by the inspiration of my new, completely fabulous, beautiful, feisty, vegan sister-in-law Jessica, we have gone taters. Now you may ask what goin' taters means. Well let me fill you in. Goin' taters is a 10 day, really kind of intense, diet of nothing but variations of potatoes. Baked, mashed, twice done, chopped and baked, covered in a million different seasoning, with no artificial anything. So no butter, no sour cream, no cheese. None of the things that I usually use to make potatoes my favorite things in the world. Its been an adjustment to say the least, but its paying off let me tell you... We are on our third full day of goin' taters, and its definitely working for us. Jess told us to weigh and measure ourselves at the beginning and at the end to see our progress. So we did that, and after just three days I am already down 4 lbs from where I started. I kind of like this whole eating healthy and loosing weight the right way. I've honestly never lost weight the right way, so this is a really new experience and Im liking it. 

So thats the newest in the Morris household. Our new way of life. Post taters we are aiming to just live a very healthy lifestyle. No processed foods. Just healthy whole foods. I like the life that we have... and we would love to be able to live it to the fullest we possibly can. So Ill keep you all updated on this crazy new journey we are taking and Ill aim to share some of our crazy recipes with you all along the way!! 

We hope you've enjoyed the current moment... Until next time!
