I don’t know where the last 6 weeks have gone! I started the 5+2 food plan outlined in Jackie Warner’s book This Is Why You’re Fat on Jan. 26. (six weeks ago). I’ve lost 17 pounds so far. I can’t tell you how exciting it is to find something that moves me closer to my goal of […]

A Healthier Story: Bye, Bye Bubbly Goodness
