Want to know why you can’t lose those last few pounds? Its possible you are eating more than you think, sneaking food during the day, or drinking your calories.
Keep a food journal and write down EVERYTHING you eat and drink. You will be surprised how quickly the calories add up and where you are adding extra unnecessary calories.
