Re: Reading List
How is it so far? I loved the first book in the series. Definitely worth it if you are into sci-fi/space-opera/adventure type series. I'm reading the second book in the series right now.

CLA Experiences?
So a trainer I respect recommends CLA for stubborn fat loss and general health/anti-inflammatory properties. Anyone have any firsthand experience with this stuff?
