I started a new lifestyle; I have an autoimmune disorder (RA) and…

I hadn't even looked…

Do Natural appetite suppressants really work or is it just mindset?
I've been reading about natural appetite suppressants like green tea, protein-rich meals, or even herbal teas. Some people claim they reduce cravings a lot, but others say it's all about discipline and buildings habits. Personally, I've noticed drinking more water before meals helps me eat less. what are you thoughts? Do…

Who says dieting can be boring???
When I first tried losing weight I really hated it, it felt like a complete punishment. “You cant have food until you’ve lost weight!” is what I told myself, so I ate a consistent diet of Chicken Salads, Chicken Breasts and greens for months; and I detested it. Well, 60lbs+ lost and my perspective has completely changed.…

More support for other health apps
