Hello Reader, Recently, during a live session, I asked a question that hit close to home for a lot of us: What if you don’t lose the weight this year? The answers were honest.

These Dannon and Oikos Remix yogurt cups are my current favorite quick snack or lunch side. I call this type of thing "healthier junk food." They aren't as healthy as...
