My Vit D was low when we checked in May; I'm doing 10,000 a day via highly soluble drops (I believe they have their own fat since Vit D is fat soluble). We'll recheck when we do another a1c in...

Aww, thanks, ladies!

I think the best part of being 100% OP is that when you stall it, like me this week, the scale inexplicably jumps up 2 pounds, you don't freak out. If I had allowed even tiny...

You know your own mental state, but something my coach told me REALLY helped me. Biologically, no, a tablespoon of ketchup shouldn't make you gain weight no stop losing. However, hormonally,...
