Don’t forget to enter the Subway Giftcard Giveaway!! Last year I was walking in my yard, minding my own business when a brick appeared out of nowhere and I banged my toe.

She’s going to think [...] A few weeks ago I hosted a giveaway for a Gym In A Bag, and guess what? Jerry at Gym in a Bag was so impressed by your comments that he wanted to give another one away! Thanks Jerry! I’ve been using it consistently since I got mine and have enjoyed feeling stronger and more [...] I was remembering back to my 300 pound days.

I was a young woman with young children and my overriding emotion during those 10 years of obesity was tired. |
