  5. Simple Foods - Challenge For Myself

    Have a cold. Started on Friday. Got it from a fellow worker who was sick on Tues and Weds. Trying to recover. Would I have gotten it so fast and hard, if I was high raw or 100%? I seriously believe nope.

    I like to eat something tasty on Friday for dinner. ...
