Thank you for the compliment, and info. I think your veggie opinion is right on the money. I will not count them. Guess what! I lost 2 more pounds! That makes 5 lbs in a week! I feel like I am on the induction plan of Atkins! I am eating between 1600 and 2000 each day and you saw for yourself in the journal I am not starving myself. Go figure! Keep up the good work, and I really enjoy seeing your message each morning! Tera
