ketchup has always been a vegetable in our house, as well as pickles. I used to tell my kids they had to eat pickles on their cheeseburgers so they would get their "green stuff" for the day. I finally started feeding them unlimited salsa, they had lots of veggies that way!

I have something really gross to show you, photos taken of my leg this morning. The doc gave me antibiotics and pain pills, the biggest concern is developing another blood clot due to the trauma of the injury. I'm still taking coumadin daily. BTW, I was ordered to sew 2 hrs every day for physical therapy! darn! The movement of the sewing machine pedal keeps the blood circulating.

I walked the length and breadth of the wmt again today, as well as the post office parking lot. Big improvement in my activity level, I just have to take it so slow. My weight was up 5 pounds from last month. My potassium level is too high and we are repeating that test.

All of you are doing so well! So what if you slip once or twice? Compare that to binging every day, and see the progress you've made. We didn't learn these bad habits overnight and change will take time.

Try drinking sugar free cocoa at night, it will satisfy yr sweet tooth, is great with popcorn, and very filling.
