Default I did something today that I never thought I would do...
I actually measured out my salad dressing, and only used a serving! I was so proud of myself. I've never been one to measure things, even when I was dieting, but the past two days I've eaten well, and actually kept track of my calories. It's a big change from my usual eating habits.

Even in just 2 days, I notice a difference. I have more energy, and feel better physically. Go healthy foods!

I love this! I started eating clean this week and after just two days I had more energy! It's kind of weird to think about how quickly changes occur, even if the scale doesn't agree or back it up! Way to go! And congrats!

I felt better quickly too..isn't the difference just amazing? I also noticed a feeling of peace and control that was lacking before. GO YOU!

Funny how you realize that an actual serving size is enough isn't it? I always thought "2 tablespoons?! No way that is enough" and then you find out it's fine. I always put my salad in a tupperware container, add the salad dressing and shake it up really good to make sure it covers it evenly.

Congrats!

I noticed a change within just a few days too! I've been weight lifting and crunches every day too. I always felt like I needed a nap around 3 pm, but now I don't. It's an awesome feeling.

Keep up the great work!!!!

I've noticed a difference too. My aches and pains are so much better, my eyes are bright and skin good not too mention the extra energy. Pays for doing doesn't it?
