  • i read "it starts with food" and realized that i needed to focus on eating healthier to heal my body, and in the process found that personally cutting out grains and refined sugars helped curb my appetite. i had used diet pills for years before reading this book. now that i eat this way, it's so much easier to focus on not…

  • DEFINITELY look into this. also, look at adding coconut oil into your diet. healthy fats help you lose fat (crazy as it sounds)... you could google that too. the testimonials from Whole30 are incredible, though. hope it helps you!

  • Advice on smoothies - eat the real fruit & veggies instead. The juicing process can take away fiber and other important parts of the fruit (depending on how you're juicing).

  • If you don't have weights, it's definitely not an issue. I found that my back always hurts when my abs get weak. You can start with doing planks for 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off, 4 rounds (just make sure you can see your form so you can judge if your butt is too high).
