Upon reflection, I've realized I've been eating my feelings. (That's the only way to describe it. lol.) I would turn to junk food to feel better. My health was in a bad place, and I think it was, in turn, affecting my mood. I'm now taking vitamin D for my mood as well, as recommended by my nutritionist.

What positive changes have you made recently that have helped you?
Is it the nutritionist that helped? How? I am really curious because I have developed some really bad food habits, and am in need of a...ummm... not sure how to say it...a reality check? A good kick in the pants? A level of accountability?
Please share
