  • I worked out...a lot....before the auto accidents that I was involved in. I have always eaten 5 - 6 mini-meals a day....then and now.

  • Hi, I used to lift weights all the time....just getting back into it now.

  • Just joined, so my first WI will be this Friday, but I'm doing well food-wise. Need to bump up the exercise though. Going through an extremely emotional time right now, but will stick with this and take care of me first this time around. :smile:
  • Would love to join! It's my first day and I know I need the support. Have read through all of the posts and it seems like this is a great place to be. :smile:
