I am down 1.5lbs this week.  I weighed in at 210.5lbs.  I am down a total of 7.5 pounds since I started.  I exercised three times this past week and had a fairly simple Thanksgiving.  It was just my husband, me, and kids, so I didn’t go overboard on cooking and didn’t even make a [...]

This past weekend we have had some company and took them to see Fort McHenry (played a part in the War of 1812).  It was a little chilly but a bright sun shinny day.  We have lived in Baltimore for almost 6 years and had not yet checked out this piece of history.  So like [...]
