You'd think that I would be as big as a house by now with all this food around but I find that when you're preparing it in the kitchen all day you kind of lose your appetite.
I weighed myself this morning and am down 26 lbs. Only one more pound to go and I will be under the #200lb. mark for the first time in nearly 7 years!!
Pretty soon I may actually be presentable on the beach.....

Why does this work for everyone but me. I'm steady eating the whole time I cook. Thus, my excuse for not cooking!
I am glad your retirement is improving your waist line. It did nothing for mine.
