Eating healthy was like a chore for Katie. Although she knew her eating habits were far from nutritious, she was prone to devouring delectable foods that were disgustingly delicious. When it came to sweets, in particular, she was a moth to a flame. Although she hoped to start making smart eating decisions, the chocolate cake in the fridge was calling her name.

Soon after, she filled a glass with ghost white milk and gulped it down in one go. “Maybe the diet will
start tomorrow,” Katie thought.
