Itโs not the first time Iโve asked the question โwhere does the time goโ but in our busy day-to-day itโs a question that I find myself thinking (usually on a Sunday night with Monday looming in the distance). For many of us, January means less money, less energy and that general blue feeling that comes along with it. Reading about theย potential dietsย I could be following right now is one thing, but putting it into practice is a lot harder, especially when it comes to rethinking your entire shopping trolley.
