That is awesome! It is definitely a lifestyle change to cut out the bad carbs, and enjoy the good ones. We use only whole wheat flour at my house, at that, it is sparingly. I've been using green veggies in almost everything I cook. My kids have, on their own accord, stopped drinking sodas and drink only water, some sweet tea on weekends, or with special meals. It is a lifestyle change that definitely is worth it!
