Back to kick a**! Looking for more friends
Back to lose 90+lb. I did it once in 2011 after my last baby. Been very ill the last 2 years so life has been ruled around medication. Looking to change that by changing my diet, and getting my body back in shape. Hopefully I will then shift some of the illnesses that control my life! Feel free to add me Kelly
