    Did you say 3 n 8 yes old?? My, my you really do look good trust me. Well I'm still struggling to keep weight off so i can't say anything Abt maintenance. My stomach area is the most biggest part of my body, and I'm still trying to figure out what will work for me as per size reduction cos just like you, the sit ups, crunches etc does not do the job. But keep up the good work though.

The next day, we started my daughter's transition to natural and I followed afterwards with mine. When I discove...

Hair typically grows about ½ inch per month, so the goal is to retain as much length as possible. Step 1: Start with a Healthy Scalp Healthy hair begins with a healthy scalp. * Wash your scalp every 1–2 weeks. * Massage your scalp for 3–5 minutes several times a week to increase blood flow. * Treat dandruff, itchiness, or buildup promptly. * Keep your scalp clean without over-drying it.
