Hello Angels Working on Earth Family!

The research suggests that “Don’t Diet.” Dieters go wrong when drastically cutting calories, hoping for quick weight loss. Their bodies go into starvation mode and slow down their metabolism. The suggestion is to change the type of food you eat. Then, you can lose weight without intentionally cutting calories. This was a very good meal. The mango hemp dressing gave it a slightly cheesy flavor. It was light and healthy.

I recommend giving this a try.

Overnight Oats

1 tablespoon flax seed
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
