I still indulge in a glass of wine or chocolate - treats are mandatory. Without deviating from the day-to-day healthy diet once in a while, it wouldn't be sustainable for me, and that's what I wanted: an approach to eating to last my entire life. ↗

Anything I do has to be directly related to my music. If it isn't, I don't really see a point to it. ↗
