Break outs
This is the first time in my life I have ever had to watch what I eat or had to exercise. I guess I put it on so slowly that I really didn't notice that I had gained 53 pounds in 18 years.

Bad...bad zucchini!!
Funny story I thought I would share. Hubby came home from work, and I picked up the zucchini off of the counter and held it up. I said to him, "I have had really really bad thoughts about this zucchini today." He had this shocked look on his face, eyes got super wide and then came the sheepish grin. I smacked his arm and…
