  • My job frequently has stuff I shouldn't eat - I just don't eat it. My gym has pizza on tuesdays I don't eat that either. If you are looking at this as a life style change you need to address what make you dread this so you can move forward with the constant food you will be subjected to the rest of your life.

  • I agree you pretty much set your own guidelines here. I'd say if the food you buy have ingrediants you can pronounce its good choice. I buy food with few ingrediants and all words I don't need a dictionary to look up. This doesn't have to cost more because its clean you just have to look harder. I love to to make a base…
