NOTE FROM FRAN:
I know there are funny people out there — I can hear you
breathing deeply. So why isn’t your name on this list?
It could be! Think up a Healthy Living list topic, write a
few items for that list, and send it to top5health@topfive.com.
If we like your ideas, we’ll let you in on our secret
weight-loss formula — and your name could appear
here, along with the rest of our boffo, buff crew.
In the meantime, stick a fork in…
