This is a great time of year. Garden produce is everywhere! If you don't think you like veg's.....think again. Try them again. Our taste buds change. Veg's are filling foods. Yet almost cost you nothing in points! YEAH! Remember you are trying to improve your health & fitness! This is for you! Also, Eat real food. Those energy bars are great sometimes....just not all the time! Eat good healthy fruits & veg's & you will see it work for you at the scale! Listen to your body, I blogged earlier this week, Julie (my leader) said to monitor hunger this week. Well, I knew this , but, I really am tracking this to the T. When I don't get enough protein, I don't feel satisfied......then I want to graze.....not good! I am very lucky . My sister Beth has a 5 acre garden right out my front door, so my possibilities are endless!
