To put the book together I used the Cinch. Love this tool...so easy to use!
I thought it was super cute and well, I love the tags and how interactive it is!
I am headed to the end of my second week appt. this morning. The second week is so much better than the first. The "withdraw" from my body from sugar, carbs and processed foods is getting less severe. At times, I do have my normal urges but for the most part I know it's mind over matter. I do feel great and that is what keeps me going. The weight loss is a bonus and of course I like many women are happy for this side effect. Anyway, I'm really happy to be off the diet soda AGAIN. It is my biggest problem with my diet.
Today is Azalea's FIRST birthday. She is in Washington and we miss her. I can't believe how fast time goes. In a blink of an eye...
We love you Zellie....
