The first thing people typically want to know is HOW I’ve lost all this weight. What am I doing? Am I taking something? What am I eating? How am I eating? HOW HOW HOW?

I’m clearly a glutton for punishment because I’m about to bring this up. The “An Open Apology to All of My Weight Loss Clients” letter that’s going viral. I probably shouldn’t touch this with a 10 foot pole because I’m going to piss a lot of people off. However, if you have a few minutes, … Continue reading
