different kinds of veggies

Food is a big part of your life, aside from keeping you alive and giving you the energy to grow and function as a human, you are also emotionally attached to your food just like the rest of us. That is why changing your diet is one of the hardest things to do that will test your determination to a limit, there are many aspects of eating that makes it hard for you to change what you put in out the body.
