in Introduce Yourself
I started about 30 days ago and so far have lost about 7 lbs. I'm really kind of excited how this is working out. Being able to track what I eat is making realize that some of the things I ate weren't exactly healthy. A love of mine is pumpkin muffins from Panera, which at 580 calories was a wow. So I opt for a reduced fat blueberry muffin from Dunkin Doughnuts, only to find out it's 450. So I started searching the internet and have found so many low cal low fat snacks that I love! My fitness pal is helping me change the way I eat and see food.

    That is awesome! It's amazing what you find about your favorite foods when you do some research, huh?

    Yea, people keep telling me not to get carried away with it but I think I enjoy doing the research. I find learning I can substitute yogurt for milk or sour cream when baking is interesting. :) I think people should do more research on their food.

    Totally agree... I read this book called "Eat to Live" (I think? LOL) by Joel Fuhrman and it taught me so much about fruits and vegetables, now I eat way more of them. I think learning about food is really interesting too.
