Fruits and Veggies are for me this season.

I have been eating very healthy ever since Thanksgiving.
Dr. Joel Fuhrman has a Holiday Challenge that 
you can find on his web site - 


The result so far, is not the dramatic weight loss that 
he promises. But, I  do feel terrific and am not missing
the sweets and treats that are everywhere
during this holiday season

It is a lot of food each day.
Eat one very large salad each day with 
lots of raw veggies and also 
eat about a pound of steamed veggies, and
a cup of lentils, beans or other legumes. '
Eat 3 fruits a day, and toss in about
a handful of almonds or walnuts.

Avoid white flour, sugar and oils.

It is simple and packed with nutrients.
This is why I think I am not craving sweets.
We will see where this all goes. 
I am committed in following this plan until
the New Year.

I love your new header! Very fitting.

Sounds like you are eating a lot of good stuff for you. I ate like this when I was on the low-fat vegan diet except I did have white flour in the form of bread at times. This is how my son eats all the time so at Christmas he allows himself to eat a few of the sweets he doesn't keep on hand in his home. He says he doesn't crave them so much anymore though. Your pears came out very nice.
