Good Afternoon Jen- Curious to what protein powder you would recommend. With all the sinus issues I have I can't help but wonder if I could be doing something different in my diet.
God Bless - Thank you for sharing your love of life on the web.

With love and Support.

I am so completely amazed by your workout and eating plans. The last pounds that you want to lose must be melting off of you! I can't believe that you have much more weight left on you to lose at this point!!

Hi great blog there!

Please check out my blog as I address some interesting issues about diet and health. If you read it from the 1st post backwards it will make perfect sense.

There are some elements of your diet that are a bit iffy. Oh I'm new here on the blog scene, would be great if you signed up too!

Thanks
