Oh how I wish there was a reset button to life, well there isn't !!! Have you ever considered guided meditation, it won't work magic in a day , with daily practice it does get better. If you are interested, there is a meditation that is currently free on audible for a trial period of 3 months. it's called you are the…

I do the same, if I hv taken a walk on a particular day, I add exercise calories on MPF as shown on my steps tracker and my overall calories are adjusted on MFP.

You can cook millets similar to quiona/rice and try making Indian style Dal fry to go with it. There are different types of millets available, you can check which one is available. You…
