Allison's Summer check-in
Time to start my summer check-in and re-listen to podcasts. My weight is still going up, so I am at a spot that I'm going to count calories along with No S. I have never ever weighed this much (except when around 6 months pregnant). I obviously need far fewer calories after menopause and no more bab...

Well for me, my daughter has been hospitalized for suicide attempts, sent to rehab for social anxiety/major depression and loads of self-harm, yet has now graduated a year early at a young 17 (and was valedictorian--though refused to participate in graduation). Anyway it's a whole book on all the wo...

This is just a non counting regroup kind of day. Had a bit of a mishap last night which involved rice krispies and a cookie.

Just one of those birthdays that I pretty much forgot it was. I ate green but then had a few bites of watermelon this evening. My daughter made bazillion calorie triple cookie dough/oreo/ brownies.
