Hi, I'm getting to PO Wed am to mail my FQ. I got on the scale today and was shocked to see I've lost 5# 1st week. Just stopped eating between meals, quit using butter & stepped up the water. I made a chili with beans & 1/2# hamburger. Got 10 servings so froze some. Feels good to eat more veggies and lots of celery & tomatoes went into the chili. Being on the challenge is really helping. Now, I've got to get into more physical activity. Today I wasn't feeling well so stayed home but I'm planning on working out Wed. Feels good to be eating better.
Oh, I learned I've got a new grand nephew and all is well for mom and her boy. My brother is now a grandpa and he is overjoyed. He is totally into being a good dad and I look forward to seeing how he evolves as grandpa. He called about the baby shower his sisters are having in March - so we can all hold the baby - and he wants to be included. I love it!
