Rachel / Australia
Do you always eat healthy food?
My name is Rachel and I'm from Australia. And my question is, do you always eat healthy food?
No. I love chocolate. I have it once a day. Not a lot, but a little bit. I love sweet things. I have a sweet tooth. So I also do try and eat healthy. I try and have my main meals as healthy, good meals, but I will also indulge in some sweet food and things that aren't traditionally healthy because I believe life is all a balance and it's okay to eat some good, some bad. You don't have to just stick to only, only healthy.
That's my opinion, at least.
