Hello everyone!
Name
is Nicholas Cole, I am the creator of cookwithnick.com and also have
another cooking blog at cookwithnick.blogspot.com. Over the last few
years, I seem to be accumulating a number of diseases from my poor diet
choices throughout my life. I love to cook and now its time for me to
turn my life around. I have been working on changing my life for some
time, figured I would start posting my progress. Hoping it will help me
continue or someone else looking for support.
I
have been diagnosed with gout, arthritis in my foot, and 3 months ago
diabetes. I was on disability and could not walk for about 8 months.
Over that time I did nothing but play games and become extremely out of
shape. I got up to 467 pounds and every step I took was painful, this
caused me more problems one being depression.
It’s
now been a year I am back to working, I have lost over a hundred
pounds, now at 364 and I am able to do my job with little pain. I been
trying to go to the gym on a regular basis, slowly getting my life back
together. My depression is going away quickly as I am able to get out of
the house and enjoy the days. But with all the changes I still have not
changed my eating style, other than cutting out fast food 5 months ago.
Now its time I figure out how to eat healthy. My goal is to try my best
to stay away from all processed foods (you know the whole middle of
your grocery store) and learn to cook healthier.
As
I go I will share my progress, and recipes that are helping me along my
journey to become healthy. If anyone has suggestions or ideas to help,
please fill free to leave them in the comments section I will take all
the support I can get.
