  • I"ve eaten around 800-100 for 2 years. I feel awesome Of course, mine is under close medical supervision and I supplement like crazy. Good job.

I started cupping my hands and swinging them while I walk so I get more water resistance. The first few times I could only do a few laps but now I'm better. I feel a nice…
