I am actually excited and this will motivate me to get moving every day... However, I am fully aware of the nay sayers. There is one in particular, and when I mention losing…

He boycotted chicken (unless it's chicken parm) a few months ago. He complains about pork chops, steak and if i even open a can of tuna he walks around making the "it stinks like fish in…

Good day?? Eh!!!!
Yesterday was a disaster. My FH, son and I had plans, that he canceled last minute. So, I stayed home. I made dinner for the family (I live with my dad and sister... don't ask!!) Fighting with the FH and going to the grocery store hungry and angry made it easy to buy cookies.. with the justification they were for my son.…
