It's basically a starvation diet (I was on the homeo coughwatercough drops). However, I wanted to do it because I needed something to kick start me out of my desperation. I had…

  • I noticed I started being mean to my kids because of the way I felt about myself. I have a ways to go, but just the act of "doing something" and exercising has completely changed my attitude and outlook on life. Everything feels possible now.
