Eight weeks ago, I wrote about a transformation challenge of a different sort (for me). I was starting the 8-week Orangetheory Transformation Challenge at the same time that I decided to take a leap of faith and try intuitive eating. No more tracking points, protein, produce servings…or anything else. I would trust my body to…
