Eat more vegetables with cooking spray

This winter I have taken advantage of my free gym membership through Silver Sneakers.  I found an early morning water aerobics class where I can do squats and lunges which I can’t do on dry land. I am also enjoying their weight machines.  They have so many more choices than the fitness center in our […]
