Eating this way feels best in my body and has helped so many women find peace with food without dieting or heavy restriction. I understand that this requires some degree of time, effort and money. Thankfully, most of my recipes are fairly easy and don’t require an insane amount of ingredients. They are also relatively inexpensive.
