Christmas/Holiday Dinner
This is the first year we aren't hosting Christmas Eve. Normally, I cook a HUGE dinner and both my husband and my family comes over. It's normally 20 people at least.

So here, I am now... at 32, a couple medical issues and two kids later, at 216 (starting weight was 226 on 10/21), hoping to get down to 170ish. I probably will…

Low impact exercises?

I was just recently approved for "low impact exercises" by the doctor. He gave me two examples: walking and biking. He also said "No running or jumping or anything that…
