    that is true, when I see how many calories I just add to my salat with the sauce I was like wow. I never looked at it that way. So now off it goes to write down every little thing that goes into my mouth :)

    It istough at first, making such a big change. I know that I struggled with counting calories constantly, but after a while you really do get used to it. By using this site you also get so much encouragement and advice from your friends, you can't help but stay motivated!

    Couldn't have said it better Sophie :) And I have to stay motivated, my goal is once to be able to work out with my husband without having all the others staring at me because I turn red like a tomato - not that my husband cares about others :)
