5) Putting the squeeze on your fruit juice

Without a doubt, fresh is the way to go!

When it comes to juice, I will always drink freshly made juice. Store purchased juice is a distance second.

I do try to make a very conscious effort to continually increase the amount of natural food that I eat. At the same time, I try to reduce the amount of processed food that I eat. I am very good at achieving that goal in the morning. The evenings are sometimes a different story. The reason I try to eat more natural food is pretty simple. It is better for you and it helps you to lose weight...

4) How journaling helps thwart binge eating

Are you sick of overeating? Your late night eating? Do you want to jump on the path to recovery from binge eating disorder yet you don't know where to start?
