It’s a cold, dreary, rainy day here in Atlanta. I am sitting here sipping hot chicken noodle soup, which is really hitting the spot. I have a bad sinus cold, and woke up with a pounding headache because of it. I am feeling a lot better now thanks to Excedrin.

I am now at the same weight I was back a few years ago, when I joined Weight Watchers and ended up losing 20 lbs before getting pregnant.
