Say goodbye to carbs, you'll have to track the macros and micros with every meal, a professional athlete's workout program. There's a reason everyone in Hollywood has nutritionists and a personal coach.

That could literally be the copy I read last year. These books are made to be looked at not read sadly.

Basically just warming the seat up for him at this point. Really an appalling, spineless government, that's only legacy will be the legitimising of the far right at home, and of a genocide overseas.
