Not only that, but splurging at all-you-can-eat places once a week actually helps keep your mental sanity and your metabolism in gear, so you should always make a point to do it!<br /><br />I also lost 35 pounds this past year.

It's mostly protein made from sprouted grains and different legumes. Also, stevia is a wonderful sweetner b/c I stay away from sugar. And when I go to the Cheesecake factory, I order fresh strawberries with whipping cream b/c as we get older it becomes harder to shed the pounds and I don't want to look like the great orange or blue pumpkin.shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596621767297173021noreply@blogger.com
