  • I have found that nobody ever cares if I bring my own burger. Nobody even bats an eye - I bring my veggie burger and light bun and a fruit salad or light salad (always enough to share, not just my own serving) I've also done a really light dessert trifle. I run that morning if I feel it won't work well. I have never had…

  • best sports bra ever - it's amazing! https://shefit.com/ It was on shark tank and is completely adjustable. Nothing moves in this thing :)
