Journey To Health: 6 Years To Find Myself

My birthday is coming up in exactly 40 days, not like I’m counting or anything. I’m turning the big 25 [it’s big to me] and I couldn’t be more excited, scared, mortified, or anxious. Since I was little, I’ve treated my birthday as others treat the New Year. I set goals for the upcoming year,…

Two of my many cleanse goals are to… Eliminate my evening grazing and prepare myself a proper dinner. I’ve been having fun coming home and creating dinners for myself.
