Thanks!

Didn't think I'd need anything but was not going to take the chance. Still watching what I take in carefully. Dropped another 3 pounds in the past 2 weeks.

We're supposed to be in the high 80's up here in the Panhandle. Wind is already screaming though, even worse than Tuesday. Think I might stay in and ride hills on the stationary.
