Stuck to the food menu absolutely perfectly yesterday. Oh, until after dinner. It was Monica’s birthday and we had cake and ice cream. But I limited myself to a crumbly sliver that was about one half-inch wide on the fat side and about one-fourth to one-half cup...

I’m down 4.6 pounds. With 21 days behind me plus nearly a week of “pre-days,” adding a half pound loss isn’t much to crow about. Phhhttt. I can’t remember the exact number now, but at the GNO Kristi said that 90-some odd women who...

I’m still struggling to get all the food in on a regular schedule. I’d love to know how anyone else manages this. I don’t get up at 6:00 am. Still, eating dinner at 7:00 pm is pushing the kids on the late side. How do you get all the meals in without...
