• Questions & Answers (24:08)
• Anonymous - the reason I can't seem to get back on the Paleo wagon is because I keep getting mad about not being able to cheat and eat like everyone else. I get mad about me needing to meal prep and go through the trouble of preparing every meal. So even though my health is declining every week that I keep eating "the bad stuff" and it isn't motivating me enough, but just gets me wound up even more. What can I do to find peace and accept my body and the fact that it just doesn't like me eating non Paleo food?
