Favorite food:
All food. But if I had to narrow it down... Mexican.
Background:
Lover of going out to dinner and drinks, entertaining and throwing dinner parties. Dressing up and being “fancy.” MBA turned stay at home mother of two trying to balance all of the things.
I grew up a really chubby kid. They called me “Bertha.” I loved hot dogs and ate them frequently. I started starving myself in 7th grade and bingeing and puking came shortly after (short lived thankfully). I’ve always had a strange relationship with food and dieting and exercise. Any quick fix I would try. Three day diet, cabbage soup diet, juice cleanse, laxatives, diuretics. All of the above. If there’s a fad diet you can think of, I most likely tried it.
When I came across the cleanse my life changed. I was eating food. Real, whole food and I wasn’t starving or supplementing with anything. I found a group of women who had a lot of the same bad habits as I did and we formed a comradery that has kept me going. My relationship with food and myself has completely changed.
