...and it was delicious!
One of the things I like about calorie counting/Macro tracking, is there is plenty of room for me to still enjoy those alleged "naughty" foods in moderation. I love that when I have a craving or simply an "I could go for a..." I can go ahead and take it. For instance, today I cracked open a bag of Utz Potato Chips. I…
