Adding More Carbs – My Pre-workout Meal
I've only been doing my high carb- low protein- low-fat diet for a few days, but the mental shift is quite substantial. The shopping trip was hilarious.. Foods that I used to look at like, "I can't even use this it's too high in carbs" are now the only things I'm...

WHY WE FAIL. Let's talk about the break down. Let's ask the hard questions. What is REALLY holding you back from the life and level of health/fitness that you want? Is it a lack of diet knowledge? Do you under eat, or over eat? Compulsive eat or restrict? Is it your...
Day 17 Support~ Recover From Setbacks

Angela Yeo in William Bonac’s Memory Book
