Let me tell you it is NOT easy at first, especially for those sweet tooth people like me,sometimes you feel like,"I have NO idea what to eat" but after a while,you'll get a hang of it & you feel more energized & healthy.I LOVE IT. It was also wake up call for me,seeing all the foods that we consume & not knowing what they put in to make & preserve it,makes me a huge health freak & plus now,I check everything that I eat,the ingredients & all,If I can't pronounce it,I'm not eating it.They also have many different websites that have TONS of D.fast recipes that are pretty delicious.So here's to our D.fast,LET'S START IT GOOD & END IT GOOD..(p.s.No cheating AT ALL;)!!!)
