Happy New Year 2024! It’s hard to believe another year has just blown bye. I can’t seem to keep up anymore—not that I’m really trying. However, I leave behind 2023 and head into 2024 with the same or even greater resolve. So what about you?
I am resolute in my goals spirit, soul, and body—to remain Christ centered and eternity focused, to continue my food journey of healthy low carb, keto-friendly, and sugar free foods that I have been enjoying from others that have mentored me through their lifestyle successes and special recipes, as well as the ones that I intend to continue to create an cook myself.
Since starting on this journey, I have lost almost 40 pounds and with only 10 more to go. Applause. 🙂 This has been a great accomplishment and milestone for me, after a surprising weight gain from emotional binging during a period of loss and severe depression. Nevertheless, I have achieved such tangible success with the lifestyle eating habits and changes that I made after finding others to help me along the way. With that being said I hope that all that I share here through my posts, reviews and recipes will also be an inspiration to you or bring some beneficial information to help you as well.
However, on that note and speaking of recipes, make this light and creamy peanut butter cake recipe to start off the New Year. It’s low carb, keto-friendly, sugar free, and it’s packed with lots of protein from the 100% peanut powder used in my recipe, but best of all its light, naturally sweet, and delicious and one you can enjoy without regret!
