Introduction
Thank you for downloading “Slower Cooker Recipes: 23 Proven Slow Cooker Recipes For Reducing Your Weight". For years I struggled with my weight. I’d lose weight, only to gain it back again. Sometimes I’d even gain back more than I had lost! I was so frustrated. But finally I found the perfect balance of the right foods to eat and exercise. Now I’m sharing the secrets to my success with you.
But first, let’s turn the clock back to two years ago. Back then I was 50 pounds overweight. As a busy wife and mom who had a hectic schedule, my family and I ate out quite a bit. It was just easier for us. Between working full time, keeping the trains running on time at home, soccer practice, ballet, playdates, etc. eating a nice, healthy home cooked meal was a luxury for us.
It was only when I went for my annual physical did I decide to make a change. After getting my blood work back, my doctor told me that I was pre-diabetic. That got my attention. Being pre-diabetic means that your blood sugar level is high, but not high enough to be diabetic yet. Basically, it means you’re on the road to becoming diabetic, unless you reverse course and start making better choices.
I thought about how years down the road, if I did become diabetic, how that would impact my husband and children. All the bad food choices that I had for my family out of convenience now felt like a slow poison. I knew I had to choose better for myself and for my family.
One of the biggest hurdles I faced was the limited amount of time I had to cook. I never really associated “healthy” foods as meals that were made in slow cookers. By experimenting and taking my favorite meals and making them slower cooker friendly, I found some amazing recipes that I plan on keeping in my meal rotations for years to come. I’ve refined and tweaked each recipe to make them healthy and they will help you lose weight.
What I learned through my journey is that often times, when we set a weight loss goal for ourselves, we go to an extreme. We restrict ourselves from our favorite foods and finally, we get frustrated because we feel deprived. Then we binge. And feel even worse. And the cycle goes on and on.
If you’re like me, you love your comfort food. And yes, when trying to lose weight,
