Am I doing this right....??
I have been a "conservative" eater for about 3 weeks now. It was nothing that I had planned.. but rather an idea with an exciting outcome. Anyway, with the gracious help of this site: I have managed to stay on target for these past three weeks and it just seems surreal:noway: . I mean I have never been an healthy eater...…
