Let me know what you guys think of this style of eating and if you think you can do it long-term!! I am very interested in what everyone thinks.

I am definitely going to experiment myself for around 2 months!! I will be documenting everything on here with pictures of my food, weight, body fat, muscle mass, and more!! Not all my meals are going to have greens but that is why I will be taking a multi-vitamin with every meal. Make sure to follow if you would like to stay informed about my progress!!
