  Thanks to  Jen Robinson from Life Wrangling for this guest post.

Zen your pantry – #pantrydump challenge

Years ago, during a gym assessment, my personal trainer made one statement which stuck in my mind, “If you want to come to the gym to get fit, you need to start from the inside out. At home, look in your pantry and dump anything that is in a packet that has ingredients you don’t recognise or can’t pronounce”. This has stuck with me,…
