Hi there, I want to reward myself without overeating/consuming my favorite junk foods. Anything that gets in the way of my goal is a hindrance - so what else can I indulge in? Here is a personal list of things that make me just as happy as a french fries and a milkshake :) Please add on your "look-forward-to's" as well! -…

Typically, I’ll go all day making great meal choices, then after dinner, I’ll want a little something - last night I started with stewed apples with ghee, cinnamon, and flax seeds. Yummy and satisfying. Then I started thinking about the Halloween candy - I got well into those. The better part of a sleeve of graham crackers…

Evryone can call me…

After, dieting or fasting your stomach or body is no longer accustomed to the heavy eating that you did before. Overeating and not exercising will only make you sick. You will feel horrible. Just take it easy. Eat small meals more frequently to retrain your brain, I prefer calorie counting that way I can feel like I' m…
