Good job Dave!!! It is amazing how quickly our bodies and minds get used to having less.. Actually, the mental part is sometimes off with me.. (no laughing!!) I'll sometimes look at some food and think, "one serving just won't cut it" and then as long as I eat relatively slowly, I do wind up feeling...

Hi Freaky!
I love blueberry smoothies too... How do you store your berries and how long do they keep? I just don't like when the fruit has a "freezer" taste at all... Tupperwear? Ziplocs?

All the best,

Hi Reinhard!
