Kate Middleton’s Diet Doctor to Lose License
Around this time last year, I slammed Kate Middleton’s diet as nothing more than the old dieting and weight loss tips repackaged as the Princess’s Royal Wedding Diet plan conjured up to sell magazines to desperate women.

Do you know how to lose belly fat? Because I don’t! – Stubborn Belly Fat = Me, Cranky!
It’s been a week since the last person assumed that I am pregnant because of my stubborn belly fat. I still can’t look at the Zumba instructor without wanting to snap her like a twig, but I am also PMSing, so that probably has something to do with my violent tendencies at the moment. It more
