tricks for chicks

Diets don’t work. Period. Restraint is always partnered with the flip side of its coin: reckless abandon. Of course there are people who live with controlled restraint and never let that coin flip over into disgusting lack of all control, but those people are either constipated, anorexic or total bores. The majority of us need to splurge.

Only lifestyle change works. But as a general rule, women need creamy more than than men do. Women need cake-y more than men do. Women need sweet more than men do. Junk needs to be replaced by delicious, healthy and filling treats, both sweet and savory…..and hence…..TRICKS FOR CHICKS: the guilt -free indulgences that I have invented for myself over the years. Enjoy and share the secrets with the chicks you love.
