The Unexpected Positive Aspects of Being in a Relationship
I’ve always been the single type. Blame it on the parents’ bad marriage, the hookup culture, or the social awkwardness so entrenched into my personality.

Also known as macro-counting, this dieting practice requires a more in-depth understanding of your food than most other diets. With this technique, you figure out your nutritional requirements —based on your goals, activity level, etc.—and work your meals into those numbers.
