    1. Thanks for visiting and commenting Shelley. Even though it has the word “diet” in it, it isn’t going to shrink our waistlines unfortunately! I would think coffee and tea is a better substitute than diet coke.

    1. Well thank you Lori for stopping by and for the nice comment. We can’t be too hard on ourselves to be on a “right track” all the time. No one is perfect. I give you a standing ovation and round of applause for being “mostly on the right track”. Keep it up!

  1. So much to know and so much that can b contradictory. Ellen, what is your take on bioidentical hormones? Sorry if you have already covered this topic.
