Wondering about changing diet plans
I've been restricting calories since July, when I started working with a trainer. He started me at 1500 calories and we slowly worked down to 1250.

Girls in their 20's

It's gross, I hate it! lol No really. I despise this chore. I know what foods are good for me, and I'm actually okay buying them. But I don't go shopping alone.

And enjoyed every second of it. So there you have it. My biggest lapse in self-discipline and judgement since January 7. I need good vibes for…
