How (and why) to NOT overeat...

“you can do it Ant! Have some more cornbread then wash the steak down with some beer!”


New York City - 2011


I have had eyes bigger than my stomach MANY times. But nothing worse than in NYC a few years back, when me and Sara went to what can only be described as a ‘food barn’ called Dallas BBQ.

Meditations on fasting.

For the past 4 weeks I've been steadily losing body fat. To do this I've used intermittent fasting and low calories.
