Decent lead. I like how you mentioned the new healthy changes but kept the old style food choices there.

Hey Amanda! I thought that your draft was pretty good. The only thing I have to say is make sure you put a dateline, and also make sure that you put your information at the bottom. Other than that it was really good, and there was great information!
