  • I eat kale pretty much every day. What I do is microwave a lot of it in the microwave for two minutes, throw it in my lunch salad along with tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, lettuce, olives and feta, then dress it with olive oil and lemon.

Seemed to work! I wasn't able get rid of the ridiculous number of calories it…

It can encourage you to drink more water, get enough sleep, etc. Even the little features, such as phone call notifications and silent alarms, are things that I've…
  • Quite recently I decided to massively cut back on all the refined sugar I was eating. My problem used to be that the more I ate it, the more I craved it, and looking back the amount of sugary junk I was getting through really wasn't healthy. At the moment, the 'worst' thing I eat on a regular basis is a 125g pot of fruit…
