  • Yeah my mom tried something called the slow carb diet where you cut out all processed carbs and fruit (because it has a lot of sugar) and you can eat meat, vegetables, and legumes.

  • When I used to get really stressed out with classes and feeling overwhelmed with life, I'd go for a run or a walk.
