Happy Saturday, peeps! Things are going well here. Yesterday's calories just over 1,700, plenty of water, fruits & Veggies (cucumber, cabbage, carrots, watermelon, cherries).
Got my B-Complex yesterday. Am now putting Neosporin on my mouth, with Vaseline on top of that. Still about the same. I don't know how people stand having chronically cracked mouths and dry lips. Mine usually don't give me ANY problem, so I guess I'm spoiled by that.
HOORAY!!! Today's the day! I finally dipped into the 240's! 249.6. I'll take it! Nine pounds lost. Thankfully, it's not been that hard once I actually got started. For a month, I've "only" been drinking three 12-oz cans of Diet Coke a day. Some days, I have wanted more, but I've been able to resist that temptation. I think I might be able to reduce it to TWO cans a day sometime soon. Still drinking at least 8 cups of water a day.
Hope everyone has a blessed Saturday!

Wow, so happy for you. I'm thrilled you are back on a better track. I too am thinking today of what I might be willing to do to lose weight. Yesterday was our 61st Anniversary and somehow I'm thinking maybe I could make a change. Aloe Vera is the most healing plant known to man, maybe you could get some for your lips. Forever Living's Aloe Lips is what I use on mine when they burn because fever blisters want to break out. Have to use it many times a day, but it stops them from breaking out. It's sold on E-bay.

Glad you are finding your groove again

@Snowwhite100, I have an aloe plant in my kitchen window. Never even thought to use it for my lips. If that doesn't work, I'll try the Aquaphor, @misChelle__. Thanks for the encouragement, @HCB, @sugarplum_, and @Maine coon. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Grats on weight loss! I bet that once you eliminate the soda pop, your weight loss will improve! It’s hard to do, I know 😆 🤗
