Lean and trim!
My 50th high school reunion is in 4 months and I am going to use it as my motivation to get lean and trim. I’m already fit so it’s all about losing some pounds.

A Big Challenge Later Today
Well, it is for me as far as my healthy lifestyle. My niece is getting married! OK, that's a happy occasion and it's all good - except for one thing... I have no control over the food being served.

it works

Pleased to Meet You
