Let's say I am trying a new drink to add to my water this time I had tried these flavors Raspberry & Cranberry, Orange & Peach and Strawberry & Watermelon they are two flavors combined together.

I realize now I am really need to stay home and nowhere to go I need to do something about my health and when you reach a point in your life feeling bored you go toward eating and not realizing how you really look.

I've decided to go back and be healthy if I can gain weight for one week. I am sure I can lose weight in one week or one month since this is what I can do for the meantime I am staying home.
