Whole grains here I come...



Eight days ago I started a new diet. Well, actually I like to call it a lifestyle change. I've been eating only whole grains, fruits and vegetables, chicken, and turkey (Only because that's really all the meat I like.)

So far, this new change has done wonders for me. Since I'm making small changes, I do not feel as if I'm setting myself up for failure. I've lost 4 pounds and I feel better than I have in a long time. The most important thing I am learning right now is to make time to prepare for meals., so I don't go out to eat all the time. I've been packing lunches for work every morning and getting up earlier to have a healthy breakfast. So...I'm hoping these small changes will last..if you're reading this, pray that I make healthy choices =)
