When he come home yesterday, I had it on. Winter white pants and matching long jacket (thank goodness for the length 'cause I still have a fair amount of junk in the trunk). I paired it with a fitted cable knit top in winter white We are seated on the sofa watching news and Mr. Noncommuicative says "is that the same outfit? It looks good" and he continues to stare.

Not bad for an NSV along with the 2 dozen red roses (he has never brought flowers for our anniversary). When I showed amazement, and thanks, for the flowers and I asked why now, he said "because they come in dozens"....i.e. number 24.

Guys are funny....

That is so sweet on both your parts! Congrats on 24 years - that is awesome!

I will look for that brand. We'll see at my next weigh in how it messes with me or not.

I've made it a whole month 100% OP! I didn't think I'd be able to last a week so I'm pretty excited. 20lbs gone forever and my husband is down 14. Life is good!!

For example, if the link is 4 oz you would need 2 serving which brings the fat up to 24 grams.

I would err on the side of caution and say no, just my opinion.

Good point. I wanted to say something about the serving size but forgot.

That's awesome! Congrats! Hopefully, it's getting easier, not tougher.
