Not Really

Simple for some.  Others- not so much.  Life- work, shopping, cooking, cleaning, children and their activities-usually takes precedence over actions needed to stay in shape (or in my case return to it). 
What also doesn't help is the ease at which food can be obtained and consumed.  I have somewhat returned to my pioneer roots.  With the exception of sandwich eateries I gave up fast food as a resolution.  In turn, I make more meals, sometimes from the basics as my grandmother would have done.  I use Allrecipes.com as a research and storage tool for recipes.  A few years ago I started making homemade bread rolls.  The latest cooking venture involves beans.  Up to this point, I have soaked and cooked pintos converting them into refried (good) and baked (not as good-using navy beans next). 
Breaking old habits, infusing new- not easy and as simple as that may seem, nothing ever is. I simply need to keep the end goal in mind on a daily basis.
