Debra! Happy New Year! Hope you had a good holiday season. I sure am glad it's over, because I discovered how tolerant my little pouchie is and now I'm having trouble getting back on track. I've already put out a call to my nutritionist. It's scarey! Yesterday (no, no bad dog ) B: Oatmeal with milk and splenda S: 4 handfuls of raisins and mixed nuts L: Ham, collards, and blackeyed peas S:Coffee and a biscotti ( ) S: Sauteed chicken, baked potato (1/2) and a tiny piece of birthday cake ( ) Help!!! The carb monster has got its nasty little fingers entrenched in my soul! xoxo Amy

Amy, Yes I tested the waters myself and you are right, it is SCARY! but we are making forward progress so that is good. It takes time to re-learn all these good habbits so we need to give us time. I know that but like you it still scares me!!! Take care Debra P
