  • My library has a collection of playaway books that are great for walking. Basically its an audiobook in a cassette sized device. Plug in earphones and you're good to go
  • I'm Sue and have been doing LCHF on and off (mostly on) since April 2014. I lost about 24 lbs then went of vacation at an all inclusive in Nov. I was out of control since then until Jan 2 when I realized that I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I gained 8 lbs. I am again in the foothills and doing induction once…
