OK folks, let's spill the beans! â As someone who once thought my beloved grande americano was sabotaging my weight loss goals (spoiler alert: it wasn't the coffee, it was those sneaky muffins), I've been on a mission to uncover the REAL tea - er,

Look, I gotta be real with y'all - I used to be that girl counting cherry tomatoes in her sad little dorm room salad. Yeah, that girl. The one who'd punish herself with hours on the elliptical after eating pizza. Pretty messed up, right? The Crazy

Let me start with a confession: I used to be that person who'd eat Nutella straight from the jar at 2 AM. Like, not even with bread. Just me, a spoon, and sweet, sweet hazelnut heaven. #NoRegrets? Well, actually... quite a few regrets. Hey there! I'm
Weight Loss
Listen, I get it. Last Christmas, I found myself hiding in my aunt's bathroom, googling how many calories were in her famous pecan pie while my family wondered where I'd disappeared to. Not my proudest moment, tbh. ð That's when I realized - we'

Look, I get it. You're standing in front of the milk aisle, staring at roughly 47 different options (I counted last week, seriously), wondering if you should get the ultra-filtered-pea-oat-quinoa blend that promises to change your life.
