Do you love to read? I do. I can’t even go to sleep at night without reading before closing my eyes. I haven’t picked up and read a real live book in years. I had one of the first IPads and used it to read. Then about 2 years ago I bought my first Kindle.

My daughter turned 18 and started college; her boyfriend started his senior year, which means football season is upon us; my son is switching colleges and opting to go online full time; I started a weight loss challenge through

Hi, my name is Kandra and I’m addicted to sugar. Worse than that…. sugar is slowly killing me. But I love it. I. LOVE. SUGAR. And it doesn’t love me back. I took my fasting glucose this morning and it was at 250. Yesterday 260. I feel like crap and suffered from a migraine earlier
