Is this maintenance? Can I celebrate yet?
I just looked at what turns out to be about ten years of data. It made me feel a little bit better. Like most of us, I sometimes get a little frustrated when only looking at recent data. In my case, I had lost about 30 pounds to what I thought was an ideal weight. I maintained in a healthy range around that weight for…

Is this Heaven? No it's Iowa . . . Corn

According to FP, two ears plus 1 tbs of butter = 218 calories. That fits into my daily target…

What Do You Miss?
I'll go first. I miss opening a bag of crisps/chips and just mindlessly munching straight from the bag, while I game or watch videos/TV. Yeah, I miss that sometimes, but I know me and I know better now. Ain't no way I'll stop at a reasonable amount, so no starting unless I weigh them out first. Lol What do you miss?
