Often they aren’t eating much. Skipping breakfast, quick snack, small lunch.

However, you’re going to feel more full from the strawberries + get some health benefits. This isn’t to say strawberries are better than Snickers. Cause a Snickers is some yummy food too!

Once you understand how to do that, accomplishing your health + weight goals become achievable!
