Today, we are going to talk about a very controversial topic on Restrictions. 

If you feel like being healthy and wanting to honor your body with health and fitness, but also don’t want to be mentally unhealthy with all these crazy rules; Should I restrict? Should I set boundaries? Should I follow this whole food freedom, anti-dieting, anti-weight world? Or should I just throw it all out the door? 

This is a very important topic, especially that we’re entering the season of holidays.
