Making meals
My mom told me that there was a website that you could type in the ingredients of a recipe and it would tell you how many calories were in one serving of that recipe. She couldn't remember the name of the website though. Does anyone else know of a website that does this? Thanks.

I'm beginning to notice something...
Now that I've started eating about 6 healthy meals a day and drinking lots and lots of water, I'm learning something.

And...my body craves water more now that it's getting more water than it did when it was getting…

Detoxing
I'm thinking about detoxing starting Sunday to clean out my body. I did some research, and it said for the first two days to drink fresh fruit juice. Does this mean if I want orange juice I have to squeeze the juice out of oranges haha or can I buy fresh juice somewhere?
