RANDOM THING TO DO

Lose Your Winter Weight
Look at summer, creepin’ all quietly in front of us, mocking our inability to have self-control over winter. If this is you and want to look and feel your best, Healthline.com suggests cutting back on sugars and starches now, drinking plenty of water (half an hour before eating works best) and boosting protein intake. Or just simply rock what your mama gave you; it’s not that serious.
