  • A lot of what this comes down to is learning how to use coping skills to work past the thoughts that hold you back. That plus starting slow and considering weight loss and a healthy diet/fitness as a LIFESTYLE CHANGE, not a temporary thing, will help you ease into a new life of being healthy.

  • My horrible adult acne actually cleared up significantly as my diet got better. I haven't had any new breakouts, and my old ones are healing quickly. I ALSO have great energy, feel full all day long, and eat more now than I did before. :) So glad other people are seeing this awesome side effect of healthy eating. Congrats!
