Hey Ladies!
I’m happy to report that I’ve lost another two pounds!
But with this weight loss, comes a little bit of apprehension about the next couple of weeks. See, sticking to Self’s plan has been pretty easy so far. With my busy schedule at school, I’ve been easily able to distract myself from temptation by doing homework. But once summer hits, I’ll have more free time than I know what to do with so I’ve decided to round up a few healthy snack recipes from Self’s website in preparation. Check them out below:
