how many calories do you take in each day?

Stress eating

Good Sunday Morning, Everyone... Yesterday was a VERY interesting day...as I went out to breakfast with DH and several of our Car club buddies.

Hi to you all
Hi, I am Grey Panther and have just joined. Grey....because I would be without the hair colour, and Panther because that's what I want to look like in a year's time.
