32、ith the word or phrase that best fits the context. “Clean eating” is a phrase thrown around a lot in the health-and-wellness scene. I use it all the time. I (41) _ it because theres no formal definition, and its not a one-size-fits-all plan. Lets face it: There isnt one perfect plan that will work f

Forcing yourself or someone else into an

Instead, understanding why you are doing what you are doing will help you make choices you can stick with and make you feel better about how you eat.When I think of eating clean, what comes to mind is knowing exactly what Im putting into my body and ma

While it can be entertaining (or frustrating) to watch, being curious about whats in your food is fair game and, I would argue, impo

44、 Ivy League university on the East Coast. I had the grades and SAT scores to get into Harvard but my father refused to pay even though tuition back then was much more affordable than it is today, well within the means of our family. I went to UCLA instead, a good university but not an Ivy. I worked
45、at least 20 hours per week throughout my four years and have always felt that I missed out on a lot of college. I feel that I didnt have enough time to devote to my studies. One of my biggest regrets is not having had the kind of immersion experience that my oldest son enjoyed. I envy him, but its n
46、ot a bitter feeling. It doesnt make me lose sight of my own accomplishments and the very real goodness in my life so far.I believe my own father envied me, too.
