    Greetings!  I know I keep mentioning Ensure but it really does good for me. 😍

    It even says on the bottle 'protein to help build muscle' it's the High Protein kind. Good for on the good or for missing complete meals.  My daughter and nephew drink it just for good health.  Weights and excercise are excellent too.  I try to do everything to survive.  xo

      OK thanks for the tip. I forgot about that kind. I usually get the kind that is good for gaining weight. But I will try this too.

    Yes totally agree with others. Pilates, Yoga, swimming, weight lifting, any exercise generally.  Weights are a quicker way but start off slow and light.  The Plank strengthens you in many areas but must be done correctly.
