Sorry I've been away so long. I just needed a break and was dealing with several health issues. I had surgery in December for what they thought was a hernia. Turned out to be a cyst filled with fluid, so the doctor removed it and cleaned it up, but it didn't heal. He went back in in February. He found several more cysts all over my upper abdomen from the sutures from previous surgeries. He had to leave the wound open so I was on a wound vac until just this week. Everything is healing up better than they expected but I'm going to have a lovely hole in my upper abdomen/lower chest. At first you could drop a tennis ball in the hole and now its down to a large marble, but about 2 inches long. I gained a bit during the immediate healing time and have gotten back to a plateau. I have kept up with my diet, though did enjoy the holidays with family. So still plugging along, healing up again and actually feeling much better than I have in years. Don't know that I will use this for my daily food recording as I have really learned to control what I eat.I have also been experimenting alot with recipes and will be posting some online, and maybe even work on a cook book. I do hope everyone has a Happy Easter, and the Lord is Risen Indeed.
