I love our way of life
I started dieting when I was 12 years old. I wasn’t overweight but I felt pudgy and I wanted a new boy at school to like me. Somehow, I obtained a calorie counting book and quickly memorized it. Each day, I tried hard to reach my goal of eating a certain number of calories. It was well below what I needed to eat as a growing child, but I didn’t see it that way at the time. I just wanted to get rid of my squishy stomach and eat a little less.

Disorientated Homing Pigeon at our place.

Allen from Phillipstown

Bit of a sitting duck to be honest - it's simply waddling about like a fatty and it's wearing home d pink coloured anklets - 179 or 79. Please reunite yourself with this obese chick if it's yours. It's in Ryan St and well in sight of predators.
