А вот знаете что z подумала.
10 дней на Новогодние праздники – это черезчур. Сперва конечно обрадовалась, что одыхать полмесяца придётся. А вот как вспомнила прошлогодний опыт, и позапрошлый. Так что-то передумала. Подумайте сами, ни денег, ни здоровья не хватит. Опять головная боль, опять лишние калории, и опять весь год хождения в спортзал коту под хвост.
Ну что смеётесь? я не права??
Попробую, попозже отпишусь.
Интересно, я попробую.
Хорошая масль, вообще молодцы!
