  • Green tea is good! There is also black licorice tea, if you like that flavor. It gives you a boost naturally and is sweet naturally.
  • When I first started I was also confused. You don't have to eat exactly the amount of calories every day as long as you eat the right amount weekly. So if you are under a 130 calories one day you can make it up on other days. It 's kinda scary at first because I didnt want to eat so much. It works though! I was at a…
