This is definately a first for me! Never in my life have I eaten an entire salad w/out putting ANY dressing on it!! Well today, I just felt like having real food for lunch, so I went to Sonic, ordered a GRILLED Chicken Santa Fe Salad w/light dressing. But guess what, I didn't even use the dressing and the best part...............it actually tasted GOOD!!!!! I didn't think that was possible. I told my boss and she said "See, that is the first step to the new you!" Wow, that felt great. Now I know I can do it.

Whoo hooo, now if I could only make myself get on that treadmill everyday!!!!

    It is a major change-- good for you. Who knew "salad" actually tasted so good, eh? I've grown to love the taste of the lettuce all by it's lonesome, too-- congratulations!!!!
  • good job! i still can't face a salad without dressing of some sort :tongue: .


    as to the treadmill, i've been making myself go to the gym four days a week - and sometimes it's a HUGE pain in the butt - but so far, i've been good and done it. just tell yourself that you HAVE to do it, as if it's part of your job or something - i find that really helps get me out of my house and to the gym. once i'm there, it's a lot easier to climb on the elliptical trainer - plus, i have an excuse to watch tv! :smile:

    keep it up, and good luck!
  • GOOD JOB!!!

    I have a hard time not eating salad without dressing.

    But lately I just sqeeze lemon or lime juice just to give it some flavor and it taste really good.

    No, ding dong has decided I need to be randomly and excessively tagged for doing the same to her.

    I'm pro tagging of ding dongs...so proceed...
