Good morning my friends !! I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee and feeling good. Unbelievably, my legs are sore from 3 miles on the treadmill.... just goes to show how lax I've become in the last several weeks........ Yesterday was a good day - exercise, healthy food and 40 oz of...

Good morning !!! I can't believe I'm the first one here today.... lol I've been wandering around Amazon for hours looking at reviews of cookbooks. I'm in a rut as far as what I'm eating. I just posted in this thread...

mrsprincess - I am searching for my own balance and own style of eating that is healthy. And I agree with most of what you said about what you eat. I too want real butter, real eggs, real food.... healthy and as unprocessed as possible. but I don't want to have to go to the natural...
