I stop eating at 7pm (evenings are my hard times for snacking)and since I don't like to eat breakfast until about 11am, I am doing 16hours without and 8 hours with. I also have given up pop (I love cherry coke)and sugary sweets. I drink more water and have more citrus and veggies in my diet. So far I have lost 17 pounds since the beginning of the year. I am happy.http://peacefulheartopenmind.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/08279278257540919011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4615566302085141880.post-4958834074790070842022-03-13T17:55:02.542-04:002022-03-13T17:55:02.542-04:00My mom, too, was diligent about orange juice, and ...My mom, too, was diligent about orange juice, and so is my wife.
