One Day or Day One
I was just overcome with a feeling of gratefulness that I am twenty pounds into weight loss rather than back at my old weight and just starting today.

Well, that’s a bummer... but it won’t stop me!
When the scale shows progress, but you can’t see it even with a magnifying glass... lol. Not gonna lie, I was bummed, but not gonna grab a bag of chips yet.

Is There A Way to Change the Servings of an Online Recipe?
When I go to add a recipe and paste in the URL, is there any way to change the servings? My example: I added a vegan eggplant Parmesan recipe and successfully changed two ingredients-flour to almond flour and Panko bread crumbs to two slices of Ezekiel bread crumbs. The online recipe that I imported said this makes 2…
