Many people who knew me growing up can agree that I had a love/hate relationship with pizza, donuts, and almost everything delicious in the world. While I enjoyed these things, I had the restraint to resist them...most of the time. I could never fully give it all up and every sprint of healthy eating ended with a massive binge day of the very food I had been trying to avoid.

What I hated most was the feeling feeling of regret that came shortly after. I felt like all that hard work had been in vain & new in my heart that it couldn't be healthy. I would often question my will power and attributed my lack of resolve to that specifically. But after acknowledging this vicious cycle, I took constructive steps towards strengthening myself and eating habits.
