The Seven Effortless Sneaky Tips for Maintaining a Lean and Shapely Body
After years of dieting and failing, I tested and lived by experiences rather than succeeding!
These days, I use food for medicinal purposes — including mental health.

I used to eat and do many stupid things — to attain the perfect figure!
No decision was as silly as dieting for a bodybuilding show — and that body became an obsession to attain, even though being such a low body fat as a woman was dangerous.
