Some lowly ladies recommend ProteIN Ice juice-like shakes. I have not found the, at any Popeyes. GNC! Or Noah. Any other pleases I should look?

Ho many people have opted for these? Why and why not?

I'm a wee bit confused from my packets of information regarding medicines. And, this is the current thing plaguing my anxiety (I really should have been born in the Victorian era so I could have "fainting spells" and complain about "my poor nerves").</

For those of you who are still size 12 and up, Torrid is coming to Eaton Centre in September. This is my favourite shop and I spend a ridiculous amount of duties to import their items from the States.
