3/ Metabolic work to stop your fat-burning from ⬇️
You don't need:
High-stress, high-glucose anaerobic work!

To start things--if you have codes and want to have them distributed, Ive just set up an email account you can email them to:
[email protected]
I will then pass them to my long waiting list at twitter. We want to get codes out asap, to start spreading.

HI All, Im was trying to redistribute blue sky codes to those who wanted them (through my twitter). Can we plan a clearing house to do this. The demand is enormous, We can focus on giving them to named accouts (real people). x.com/PhillipsPOBr...
