Slim Vegetarian: Re: [Vegetarianslimming] Re: Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin- article from TIME

I also have a bike but since we moved to the top of a hill, I have not been
riding it. It's too steep.By the way, my name is juliet and I'm from
England, a small town on the South East coast.
I have taken up swimming and have just planted out a vegetable patch with
lots of salad stuff and other veg.
