 How much do you really know about carrots? Do you believe that the larger carrots are healthier? What would you think if I told you that was a myth? Organic and GMO free carrots are much smaller than genetically modified carrots. In fact they have a less consistency in shape and size. Carrots come in several colors such as orange (the most recognized), yellow, white, red and purple. Carrots are a source of beta-carotene, fiber, vitamin K, potassium and contain antioxidants. Carrots have been associated with lower cholesterol levels and they are considered to be a weight loss friendly vegetable. Carrots can be enjoyed cooked or eaten raw. I like to bake carrots with olive oil, cinnamon and nutmeg. Whatever your preferred style for eating carrots, I hope you will enjoy them. Also, please look for the many colors of carrots at your local farmers' market.

Last year I decided to join Weight Watchers online after receiving positive feedback from several of my friends. However after joining the program, I discovered that my journey differed significantly from my friends. The main reason for the significant difference was that I was on a gluten free diet. In this video I discuss my experience with the program as a Celiac. I also discuss how I viewed my weight and size pre and post Celiac Disease diagnosis. I also provide an overview of the diet plan that I have been following since I discontinued the Weight Watchers plan. In addition to discussing cheating on your diet, I talk about portion control. I hope that you will find this video informative. Remember it is only my perspective. As I strive to have an honest and loving relationship with my body, I always try to remember to take a healthy approach to dieting. XOXOXOX Dawn |
