Never say that you don't have enough time for exercise. You'd be surprised how far little things go, like taking the steps instead of the elevator or marching for 20 minutes while watching television. And, if you have a lot to lose, set your goals in 10-pound increments. It's much easier to get discouraged if you set large goals.

The payoff: Being able to look in the mirror and say, "I like you." It's a great feeling!
Make yourself a priority, stay committed to losing weight and focus on working out and eating right.

~~~Eating cooked cauliflower can get very boring, very fast. But using this sauce and topping will change everything, turning the plain old boring cauliflower into a real treat!
