Is it just me or does everyone go through a phase of fantasizing about food? It's been cream cakes, cream doughnuts to be exact. I haven't eaten one for years.

Hello Newby here...
Hello! Newby here! I did the talk and talk and talk about starting a program. Now our work is dangling a carrot. In order to get our $325 benefit, we need to sign up for stress management, 10,000 steps, or weight tracking and journaling. Not thrilled about any of them, I woke last night at 1:30AM and could not get back to…
