Five Word Fitness

I love my Twitter buddies.

Whenever I throw something out there, I get the most amazing responses.

This was a spur-of-the-moment request for folks to give me their best weight loss/fitness/healthy living advice in five words exactly. I know that my readers have absurdly short attention spans, so I wanted some boiled-down messages… and that’s exactly what I got.

Enjoy!
