For those of you who know me well, you know I have a killer sweet tooth. Big time. For this reason, it’s vital for me be prepared with some ‘craving killer’ treats. This cookie recipe from November’s Oxygen magazine is dynamite! I promise you, cravings will be gone!
Remember, long-term effective lifestyle management is about practicing the 80-20 rule. 80% of the time, we eat for fuel. 20% of the time, we eat for fun. And, we always train hard and rest when we need to! Enjoy!
