Still haven't had time to read posts but wanted to report that I've lost 2 of the 3 pounds I gained.:bigsmile: Getting back to healthy eating, lots of water and exercising is doing the trick! Guess you're right Becky!!!! :wink: Back to work! BirdieM:heart:

Sounds like I'm not the only one struggling with food this weekend.:ohwell: None of us are perfect :ohwell: .

They kept coming and then I realized....those were not lightning flashes…

Just popping in to say hi. We had tornados in this area that are very uncommon for New England. I hope Debbieanne is OK. It hit pretty hard around her area. 40 miles north of where I live so we were safe. Makes you appreciate mundane and boring days. Hugs BirdieM:heart:
