I've been trying to keep a food log for the past few days to really see what I have been eating and hopefully be able to make sure I am getting all the nutrients I need.

I bought a bikini. It is a teal situation with an open criss cross situation on the boobs. I have been fatting it up all over Europe, it seems.
