Leann, I am trying to control the paper piles here, too. It builds up so quickly on every flat surface if it has its way. My goal for today is to clear one kitchen counter and one box in the family room.

My other goal is to jumpstart a weight loss. Like Carrie, I'm coming off steroids so that complicates things. Carrie, you're doing fine if you aren't gaining this soon after oral pred. Hang in there. You will prevail. And, yes, sugar and simple carbs cause hunger. First, your blood sugar goes up, then it plummets lower than it was before the sugar, causing a sudden hunger. I am less hungry without my chocolate.

I AM losing weight and improving my health. I am, I am, I am.
