You asked to be more fit and healthy. This is your preparation!

Eat This Don't Eat That. A portion the size of a card deck 30 minutes before 30 minutes after nothing bigger than a dime Drank warm Drink cold Don't stop drinking, no matter what meals and snacks spaced 2 to 3 hours apart Exercise every day Don't get overtired Get plenty rest Don't lay Around Don't Eat late at night Don't let your stomach stay empty That pain is stomach acid That pain is dehydration. You just are imagining that discomfort At v this stage you should be doing... Don't stand still when you could,be,moving. There's a lot on that big flat platter, ithink,something fell over the edge!?
