CRUCIFEROUS & Lavendar-Fennel

I set a GOAL this year to begin eating 2 POUNDS of veggies a day! That's a BIG Goal for this lady, as veggies have never been my favorite. The only veggies I would eat, were in a basic salad (Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, Onion - with oil/vinegar).
As I go further into the SUCCESS of this program, and expand me food horizons. I am discovering CRUCIFEROUS veggies for my salads.
The contents of this salad: English Cucumber, Red Pepper, Red Onion, Green Onion, Cilantro, and Cabbage. The dressing is Olive Oil with my home steeped Vinegar (Cilantro, Oregano, Garlic, Whole Dried Cayenne Pepper). To go along with this meal - I'm reluctant to post my lunch today because it isn't PERFECT on plan. But I think it's important to show some of the meals I've been SUCCESSFUL on the plan [actually] eating. 
WHOLE FOODs is my favorite place to eat other than my own kitchen. And over the past year and a half, I have frequented the hot bar where the wings reside at Whole Foods. There was a chicken dish that I loved - Fennel & Lavendar Chicken. I make it a practice to take a picture of the ingredients card at Whole Foods when I love something, then I go home and recreate it. These wings are my version of the Fennel & Lavendar chicken.
If you've been following my story. I'm just about to hit my 1st GOAL of -92 pounds. I now help others reach their weight/health goals through the program I am using. It helps me to be ACCOUNTABLE, as well as brings me in a part-time income that is starting to get nicely sizable. I did this for my own health first, then decided I wanted to SERVE others in this manner. I hold coaching sessions EVERY Monday night, and have program members attend from all around the country. You don't have to live here in Nashville to be successful on this plan, you just have to be READY!
I'm here to help you learn the fundamentals of how to feed your body correctly for it's highest potential. I haven't felt this good in 30 years!
