i didn't even have to wait a year to hear her say thanks. she does it often. she's a little less raw than she was, but i think that's because it's summer, she's super active and is loving how she looks. she's already said that once the cooler weather begins she'll be back to salads again.

i support her 100% to follow what she believes her body needs - after all, it's her body!

just wanted to update everyone to let you all know... that even someone young can make a huge change in their diet if THEY choose to. i wanted her to for years... but it took her wanting to to make the difference.

so moms out there... if you have an overweight child... be a good example for them. eat healthy, exercise and g-l-o-w cause that's the best way to show our children what their own potential is!
