We are over the halfway mark with our Lighten Up Weight Loss Challenge group. I am LOVING hearing about all of the weight loss and how people are spending more and more time in their kitchen, experimenting with recipes, and realizing that healthy food can actually taste great! After this post, I will be posting some recipes that accompany some of the meals. So be on the lookout and give them a try. Some of them have come from Lighten Up participants!
