I fought back tears every time I went to the doctor and watched the scale creep past 350 into the 370’s. After that I closed my eyes when they weighed me.

You’d think we weight-conscious Americans would be downing the vegetable by the bagful. You would think, wouldn’t you? However, there’s a problemContinue reading “Stalked By Celery”
