I love how dense kale is, but I know lots of people f...

annefood Interesting article for sure! If people don't like kale, they should just eat something they do like instead of trying to change kale. They should try swiss chard or collard greens which have more...

-
DietID_TeamDietitians Yes definitely drink water during the Challenge. You can also drink seltzer if you're craving a fizzy drink, but be sure to get plain seltzer or naturally flavored seltzer like Poland spring lemon,...

Is there any way to stop these eating marathons?I mean I eat almost everything I have in the fridge and its been happening for a couple days
