Happy Friday everyone. This is going to be a short update. I haven't been getting much sleep lately so while bed is beckoning, I had to share how my week went. While I'm happy to say I'm back on track, I'm going to continue to set small goals for myself. First, true confession time. I almost didn't go to my weight watchers meeting this morning. Last week's gain was scary. I was almost afraid to weigh in this week. Luckily, my wise husband Adam reminded me that I always feel . . .
