“It’s all about choices. If you make better choices for yourself then you feel better about yourself. If I choose a Special K bar that has fiber, folic acid, vitamin A and D over a Snickers bar, it’s a better choice for me so I don’t have to beat myself up all day long about that Snickers bar or feel bad when I go to my trainer and have to admit: ‘I had a Snickers bar today. I know it wasn’t the best choice.’ So in conjunction with my workout, if I’m making great and healthy food choices, then I’m going to feel better about myself. I’m definitely going to see better results in the gym,” she shares.
