Is it possible to gain weight from looking at the pictures??

 

Also, Roxy, will you adopt me?

[Roxy15]

Sure I will adopt you:) It is raining here and soup sounds good to me:)

WOO HOO... I'm gonna eat like a freaking king.

 

Only downside to that is I'm going to have to run at least 5 miles a day or I'm gonna weigh a billion pounds...

I exercise a 1/2 hour everyday and sometimes I do an hour so you can join me:)
