Happy Fourth!
Hi neighbor! I'm from Lafayette and my dad and his parents are from New Orleans. That was a second home for me growing up! I just went last month to go to the Aquarium Of A. Fun times!
You are so right about the massive amounts of food everywhere you go. It is ridiculous! My dad and his side of the family LOVE to cook and so do I. I'm re-learning how to cook and how even small changes make a big difference. I cooked brown rice for gumbo for the first time yesterday! And I ate it in a small coffee mug instead of a "gumbo bowl" !!! haha!
I looked at your album of your before and after pics...yay! What an inspiration...people CAN lose weight in Louisiana! You really look amazing. I love the picture where you are pointing! It looks like you are saying, "Who IS that guy?" to your "before self."
Thanks for the encouragement!
