Welcome Back Old Friends
It’s almost the end of summer, but today I welcome back some old friends. They had been packed away in a tote under my bed for a while now.

Week Three Summary

Back to Basics
About a month ago I finally started doing something about my gaining a bunch of weight back and poor eating habits. Things started off well but a cold slowed me down for a while. Still I had pretty good progress I lost close to 10 lbs during the past month. I’m very happy about this,Continue reading “Back to Basics”
