    "It's hard to believe that the average American consumes around 3,800 Calories per day"

    It says this after all the pictures. All I could think was. Wow that was me 2 months ago.

    Thanks so much for that. It really does put everything in perspective!

    Thanks for posting this.

    I use to eat 3000 - 4000 calories a day. It was plain junk food and I felt like crap. This past week I overhauled my diet and I made a delicious lunch (salad / watermelon / cottage cheese) and two snacks for work and it was less than 400 calories. It was so much food and I was stuffed! It truly surprised me how changing the types of foods we eat can really impact our bodies and how we feel. I can't go back to the crap I use to eat!

    Thanks for the link! I bookmarked it as well!

    For more visuals check out this link http://www.hungry-girl.com/books/6 and you can see photos of every single recipe in the cookbook 300 Recipes under 300 Calories. I own this cookbook and everything I have tried is delicious and filling. Yum!
