Sorry about the break. I’ve been working a lot and husbanding my strength for that.
How has Weight watchers been going? Slowly, very slowly. It’;s never been easy for me, and now, older, it is even harder. But it is also a great puzzle, trying to find the right combination of food to taste good, leave me feeling full and not too deprived and not crazy with hunger or binging to compensate for too low a blood sugar. I may be getting it, at least a little.
The good news is that I’ve had a complete check up and I am totally healthy, no diabetes, heart disease etc. and my thyroid is fine.
I have found a few great recipes. and today I want to share one with you.
