[fast5] Re: Healthy?

Well I ate a lot of what I wanted - in the beginning. Then continued to eat badly. Mostly junkfood...yuck. It was dumb and I know it was wrong. At the time, my work schedule was limited, or maybe I just didn't care enough. Besides, I was within my window. Anyway, big backfire eventually. I stopped FF cold turkey, regained the weight.

This time, Day 1 of second attempt in 2 years; I will eat more healthy foods, stay off the junk, drink more water, and ease into my workout routine.

Wish me luck!
