We are taught that cravings equal unhealthy and no cravings equal healthy. But guess what? I am here to tell you that you will never get rid of your cravings, and that it’s fully OK!

So, your body will sabotage your efforts almost every time — while also making it harder and harder to lose weight the more 'famines' you put it through.
Read...You can improve your health without losing weight!
