Okay, so I moved into my new place. I love it, it's a great space. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to get back on track.

And whenever I’m craving those foods I remind myself that am I actually wanting the food or the additives. This mentality has helped me stay away from foods that I deem hurtful... Continue Reading →
