Kale Brussels Sprouts and Avocado Green Salad

"Nourishing my bod with greens and things! Today, I wanna chat about FOOD NEUTRALITY. It’s this idea that food is just food. You will stop obsessing over food when you stop putting pressure on yourself to be skinny. I believe food loses its power when we become weight neutral, not food neutral in and of itself."
